"Dahee"

Zachary's vocabulary is growing from day-to-day. He is picking up at least one new word each day and is constantly repeating the things that we say! I love hearing his little voice. It is the sweetest. He speaks with inflection and can put quite the attitude (and facial expressions) with what he is saying.

By far though, my very favorite thing to hear is "dahee". Just today, Zachary started calling Matt "dahee" instead of "dada"! I love it!

WORDS

Zachary has become quite the little talker. He constantly repeats what we say and is always jabbering. I swear, he learns at least a couple new words everyday. It is crazy! I have to admit that I love hearing his little voice. It is so sweet. He is very expressive for his age. He uses lots of facial expressions and tones to his voice. You can definitely tell if he is happy, or sad, or mad!

Here is a list of Zachary's most-used words. It is by no means a complete list because each day he adds more words to his vocabulary. I am so proud of Zachary and amazed at how good he is at communicating with us. We have tried teaching him sign language...but he just says the words instead!
