Words

Allison has been picking up a lot of new words. At her 18 month checkup, the doctor asked the following: can she walk up and down stairs assisted? Can she feed herself with utensils? Can she say at least 15 words on her own? Yes to all. Here are the words she can say on her own, some of which she learns through books: 

Food: Water, rice, bread, cereal, ba"nana", oatmeal, dan tat (egg tart), to"fu" 
Animals: dog, duck, butterfly, lion, mouse, elephant. Can recognize seals. 
Greetings: hi, bye bye, night night, please, more
Cloths: socks, shoes, hat
Actions: change diaper (in viet), up, down, fart, all done
Objects: brush, paste, TV, phone, book, fork, spoon?, this
Expressions: oh no, wow
People: mama, daddy, gong gong, Umma, elmo, ba ba, Mei mei
Body parts: can point to nose, ears, butt
Numbers: Can count in alternating fashion with us (I say 1, she says 2, she says 3, etc).
Colors: can say after repeating but not yet recognize: orange, blue, red, green, purple.

Other: can say after repeating : soon, outside 

Words that she can sign but not say: please, thank you, more, itsy bitsy (as in the spider)

To teach next: colors, shapes, abc
