Fiona is really good at mimicking whatever it is you’re doing (except nodding yes =) She loves to sit on the counter with her toothbrush and move it back and forth in her mouth just like us, she taps her foot, waves, gives high-5’s, blows kisses etc. all of which started out as just mimicking and some of which I think she has finally made a connection to. But yesterday I had to stop and marvel at my little girl. I was vacuuming the house and I turned around to see her with extra vacuum “arm” (?) and attachment right behind me running it across the floor. She has gone into the closet where the vacuum lives and found that and brought it out and was “vacuuming” right behind me. I think this is fairly advanced for a 11 month old (?) To recognize what it was , where to find it, and what to do with it? Maybe we’ll have to get Auntie Valerie to come over and start doing physics problems in front of her =)
Let’s see….what else does she know now….she puts her hat on and off of herself and us and even zoe…she knows her socks and shoes belong on her feet although she has yet to figure out how they get there…she can take her bib off (great), and she loves to tickle tickle tickle your feet!
