The First Fifty

Ellie will imitate any word that we say now (not sure if that is a good thing...), but she also has a lot of words that she uses appropriately without prompting. I've been keeping a running record of her "everyday" words for her baby book. Yesterday she officially hit the fifty word mark. So, here they are, in the order of acquisition:

1. Mama
2. Dada
3. uh-oh
4. dog
5. rock
6. ball
7. hi
8. eye
9. wow!
10. whoa!
11. that
12. all done
13. Ellie
14. out dogs
15. upstairs
16. hot
17. rub, rub, rub (when washing hands)
18. hello
19. hat
20. sock
21. wa-wa (water)
22. owboo (owie + booboo = owboo)
23. bye-bye
24. nose
25. no
26. yes
27. go
28. bike
29. mo-mo (motorcycle)
30. well
31. I know (When we tell her what something is, this is her response!)
32. hi Dada!
33. juice
34. pool
35. nurse (as in breastfeeding)
36. hush (as in be quiet dogs!)
37. please
38. trash
39. mess
40. close
41. shoes
42. step
43. paci/pass (pacifier)
44. lovoo (lovie blanket)
45. yuck
46. up
47. ice
48. box
49. boobs (as in mine...)
50. bath tub

And then, here are the new ones since yesterday:

• baby/babies
• home
• wash
• mush (move)
• Mox (Moxie)
• Bast (Sebastian)

For those of you in Idaho, we are heading your way on the 4th. Grandma and Grandpa B. may want to be ready with earplugs!
