Olivia's words

Here are the words Olivia seems to be able to use

At 17 months, she was using:

• Bye bye
• Shoes
• Book
• Ba ba (daddy)
• More
• No
• Uh oh
• Baby
  
• Xie xie (thank you in Mandarin, this is Spencer's favorite, as she says it with a very sweet voice)
• Done

And at 20 months, she has developed usage of the below words (some on a very limited basis.)

• Hai yo: I want more (in Mandarin)
• Hi
• Duck
• Car
• Dog
• Feet
• Outside
• El-Mo
• Diaper
  
• Na na (Banana)
• Ball
• Down
• Cheese
  

She still doesn't say 'Ma ma' with any regularity. She might be a little slow relative to other kids her age, but I think this is one of the costs of daycare vs nanny. We had thought about getting her a nanny until preschool, but she is extremely happy at her current daycare, and there are other kids that she can play with.

We'll be heading to the library this weekend to check out some new board books, Babar, Richard Scarry, ... Send me your comments on the words that we should be teaching her and books I should be reading to her.
