we're having breakthroughs left and right

The girls are amazing us every day with their new tricks. Lately it has been counting. For a couple weeks they have been asking us to count for them when Lisa was gone, I got Katy to start counting herself. The first time, it went something like this...

"Wooooooonnnn. Tooooooooo. Feeeeeeee. Fuuuuuuuuull. Siiiiicks. Toooooooo. Wooooooonnn. TEN!"

I couldn't believe it! It was awesome. I asked her again to count the animals and the second time it went...

"Woooonnn. Tooooo. Feeeeee. Baaaaare. Biiiiiiird. TEN!!"

Not bad at all. So we've been trying to get them to count on video but haven't been too successful. Alyssa is also getting into the act. One of the first times she counted, she went all the way to ten and only skipped five. We were both VERY impressed.

So here is a video of a little counting by Katy. One word that you'll here in there is "I'll dude it". We've learned that I'll do it, I did it, and I'll dude it are all interchangeable.

I got Alyssa to open up a little in this second one but she took a lot of interest in watching the video of Katy so you can hear her talking with me while we shoot Katy. Entertaining nonetheless.
