rory's vocabulary is literally exploding with words, and she's putting 2 words together to express herself more and more. and i don't know where she learns half of them. i bought her an 'abc' picture book this past friday while we were showing amber around the upper valley, and by last night she could identifyalmost all of the pictures.

on of her latest tricks is if she wants to go somewhere (like to the little shelf where she knows i keep the stickers, her new obsession) and i'm holding her, she says 'mama, go-go' and emphatically points in the direction she wants me (her chariot) to take her.

also, this weekend, when people ask here where she got her gold bracelet, she started answering 'it-ly' or 'i-aly'. even this morning when we were getting ready to go to school/work, she pointed to my bracelet, then showed me hers and said 'it-ly'.
