70 words

My baby is a genius. She still can't walk, but she is a genius. We went to the Pediatrician yesterday for her 15 mo checkup. Well, two days before the appointement I decided to write down all the words she says. Of course the pronunciation is not correct, ie boop for book. But she only says boop for a book, nothing else. Anyways her Pediatrician said that counted. Well, she knows almost 70 words!!! Yes, that is right 70. Well, her Dr. said that she didn't think she ever had a baby say that much at 15 mo. My guess is that no other parent had sat down and actually written them down, or like my friend Traci, she didn't count a word unless it was pronounced correctly (I told her that it did count.) Did you know the average amount of words is 6, that's it. And that is average! Some don't even say that many at 15 mo old. I couldn't believe it. My baby is a genius. =) The Dr. was very impressed. Overall, the Dr. said she look great and seemed to be a really great baby. I agree!! I am so blessed to have our little Emma. We thank God for her every night.
