Happy Day!

The joy of teaching your child something new is like no other joy. Irelynn is learning something everyday. This weekend, she said so many words and did so many cute things, I don't have the time or energy to list them all. Today, we went to Nannie's house for her birthday dinner. She was ecstatic to see us all, especially Irelynn. Before heading up there, we tried to teach Irelynn to say happy birthday. When we realized that that was a little much, we shortened it to "happy day." She has been saying this phrase over and over all weekend. We all had a wonderful afternoon together. Irelynn has also been expanding her spanish vocabulary with Si, aqui, agua, and a few other words. Counting is really fun for her and we count everything with her. Animal sounds are pretty novel right now. She has been getting the cat and the cow sounds mixed up. She get's so into it though, it's priceless. Each day, she changes and grows more and more.
