20 Months

Chloe has impressed Mama and Daddy so much at her 20th month. It seems that this month, Baby Girl's vocabulary just exploded! Some of her new words this month were wow, red, boat, bear, slide, candy, walk, light, hot, light, flower, meow, cat, lobster, crab, ew, ow, water, bubbles, toes, knee, heart, car, outside, notebook, jump, bee, bzzz, bird, hand, beep, aw, keys and moo. She's also learned to put two words together like hi baby, no more, thank you, ta da and uh oh. And when it comes to Vietnamese, she can say hurt, water, light, hold me, shoes, burn, bath, change diaper, Uncle Ca, and Grandma Phan. She's also learned her some other family names such as Hon (Mama's term of endearment for Daddy), Katie, Uncle Hau, Amy and Uncle Giang.

Chloe became more independent this month, which broke Mama's heart a little. She is now able to walk up and down the stairs all by herself, put on her own tennis shoes and velcro them all by herself! She's also learned to snap the seat belt of her booster chair and carseat. Some of Chloe's other new tricks include using possessive forms like saying Daddy car or Chloe shoe. Mama and Daddy love it that she's also learned to say her own name and recognize herself in pictures or video! And finally, Baby Girl is learning some of her letters. The newest ones she's familiar with are B, O, T, and D. What a month Chloe's had!

I can snap this all by myself.

See?

Sweet Miss Chloe at 20 months.
