Learning New Skills

Katelyn has been learning how to use utensils when eating. Her first forray was an extremely messy undertaking but she had a lot of fun trying to get the yogurt back off the tray and onto the spoon so she could eat it. Her fingers are still her preferred method, but she is starting to understand that the spoon and fork could be useful too.

She is also getting closer and closer to talking. She babbles on all the time now, sometimes for 10 minutes or more. She still sings along with the radio, sometimes, but more and more it seems like she is trying to tell us what she is thinking about things. She is immitating us more and more each day and has mastered clicking her tongue and smacking her lips. She tends to do the latter a lot when she is eating something she really likes.
