Lexa in the Grass

Here's what I wrote about what Lexa was doing in August 2010:

Lexa says 'buh buh' and waves. When I put on my shoes, she walks to the front door, starts rattling the doorknob all the while waving and saying 'buh' buh'. She also says Mama every once in a while to me. She says it to Patrick too. She loves pretending to talk on the phone with her toy phones, or my cell phone or itouch. She holds it to her ear and says, "ewah". She heads for the back door when I say, let's play outside.she's starting to pick up books and point at the pictures while saying ga!She likes to bring me things, ride on the rocking horse. She watches Timmy jump and tries to jump, squatting up and down excitedly.She holds out her hand and opens and closes it when she wants something we're holding.we have conversations with her in baby talk.
