Kids say the darnest things, don’t they?
Sonia is talking up a storm these days. She’s very interactive and playful, and picking up new words on a daily basis. She enjoys it when we read books, and can complete the sentences on her favorite books. She can also count to 15.
I think all this is quite amazing. (Of course, I’m biased.) For a 10 24 month old, Sonia’s definitely on the fast track as a learner. Kids at this age are so innocent and pure – they wear their emotions on their sleeves, but their personalities are also coming through.
For instance, when we ask Sonia to “perform” (i.e. ask her to count, etc.) in front of family and friends, she gets incredibly shy. When they go away, she talks a mile a minute. It reminds me of the following cartoon:
Anyway, hope you enjoy the latest ‘toon! (And welcome, JEFBOT readers!)

Update: Art imitates life. This afternoon, Sonia broke my glasses while I was taking a quick nap.
Krishna I thought Sonia was older than 10 months? I thought she was closer to 24 months?
You’re right, Jason. Totally didn’t proof that. Thanks for the catch!
Easy for me to remember. Sonia is only a little older than one of my boys.
Very impressive! Not even sure that I can count to 15 yet … and I’m … quite a few months older than Sonia!
It always cracks me up when they’re so serious with their baby talk. You can tell they have all the delivery down–just in the wrong language! You definitely have a smartie there!
OMG! I hope that’s not ROM #1 torn to shreds on the living room floor!! I’m going into cardiac!!
At least she owned up to it. We have a friend whose toddler daughter would scold herself while she was doing naughty things.
I think we’re just lucky we haven’t yet wound up with the famous sandwich-in-a-vcr. Yet.
I know exactly what you mean because my youngest was exactly like that.
For me and my husband he’d dance, sing. talk, count what have you but when asked to do it infront of someone else he’d freeze up and cling to mommy.
