Just this week, Madi’s begun to start piecing together a couple of words into phrases. She’s got quite the little vocabulary already and knows lots of single words (including some that she shouldn’t, sorry about that). For example, the other day she stood up and started saying “I’m Madi!” followed by “I’m Me!” Another favorite is “Hi Baby” or “Bye Baby”. But, none of them have been used nearly as much as her very favorite phrase. That phrase would be “Nyuh….Melmo?” “Nyuh” would be the equivalent of “more”, which she confirms using her sign language and do I really have to explain what “Melmo” is? She knows that we use the DVR to record Sesame Street every day, so every time we pull up the list of recordings, she associates that with getting to watch Sesame Street. When it starts, she talks about Big Bird for a minute and then quickly asks us to fast forward to Melmo (which is always the last 15 minutes or so) by saying, “Nyuh…Melmo?”

Playing a Dora game at the Apple Store, only because they didn’t have a Melmo game.
