Billa Babble: Balloon, Book, Popo

It's been awhile since I posted any Billa Babble. She says so much all the time, but none of it has really been consistent. There are some words that she now uses regularly, like "ball" (which she now has approximately 493 of them in her ball pit), "milk," "Mama" & "Daddy." And she gestures. A lot. Maybe too much as we have begun to wonder. But we still hear words like...

Balloon: It actually sounds more like "bah-roon." I don't know how she does it, but Billa manages to spot EVERY single balloon in the grocery store and has a conniption fit when we don't get them for her. Sorry, honey, but Mommy isn't 20 feet tall and can't reach the DEFLATED balloons in the rafters for you...

Book: I was actually pleasatly surprised when Billa pulled a book off the shelf the other day and carried it away, saying "Booh. Booh." (Like book, but without the 'k') She definitely has a favorite one too that is one of those touch and feel and learn books. She likes the bumpy green frog page the best!

Popo: No, our child is not referring to a Pissed Off Police Officer. Michael's family grew up calling a pacifier 'popo.' So we've adopted that as our word as well. I got Billa to say popo the other day as she took one from me and wandered off. She yelled at me not too much later when she couldn't find it and practically screamed "Popo!"

So that's our Billa Babble for now. Now enjoy some silly pictures of our girl Billa!

Love,
Kelly & the Gang

Mommy makes such good cake, I can't wait to sit down and eat it!

I am just so tickled!

How Billa spends a good portion of her time: stuffing her face.
