Dani update

Dani is nowhere near the talker Jack was.  However, this is probably largely due to the fact that Jack talks so much that no one else can get a word in edgewise!  Dani has been talking a lot more lately but seems to have trouble with her vowels.  Instead of saying "Mommy", it comes out as "Mammy".  Poppy comes out as "Pappy".  Poo-poo comes out as "Pah-pooh".  She calls herself, "Dan-dee".  It's completely adorable and we are wondering if our baby was meant to be Southern.  At 19 months she can say and do a lot.  She recognizes and names almost all letters and numbers 1-10.  My favorite word is currently "racquetball" which sounds more like, "Whacketbaw!"  She loves to say "no" but hates to hear it.  And she is still completely fearless!  She loves animals and is extremely social.  She loves all people but she definitely loves her Daddy the most!  She is such a Daddy's girl and Paul just beams when she calls out for him for a hug.  She is very affectionate when she stops moving long enough to hug and kiss you.  And she loves to give kisses.  She's simply amazing and adorable and I just love the little person she is becoming!
