How'ya doin'?

Sometime after Mike returns home from work...

Jonathan: "Did you go to work today?"
Mike: "yep."
J: "How was work today?"
Mike: "ok."
J: "How ya doin' today, daddy?"
Mike: "I'm just fine. How are you today Jonathan?"
J: "I'm fine. Just like you daddy."

Sylvie - "Haiiiiiiiii!" (usually accompanied by repeatedly opening and closing her fists)
That's all she says that's recognizable among her constant chatter. Any time the phone rings, in the mornings when I come into her room, after naps, when passing strangers- she gives a nice, long, drawn out "Haiiiiii".
Crawling now is by necessity only, as she has learned that with enough whining, she can grab our hands and walk wherever she wants to go...and she definitely knows where she wants to go. She has quite a strong personality and lets you know right away if she's not happy about where you are "walking" with her or god forbid, if you free yourself from her grip. She cannot walk on her own soon enough!
She does love to give kisses and understands a lot of what we say. I'll have to take a video of her giving kisses...so cute. She also claps hands and goes for the stairs any chance she gets when there's a lapse in the gate.
