We are hearing lots of narratives lately - with a lot more observations that make sense to us. (watching a karate movie and two guys are fighting each other)
Esme: ow - you alright? ow ow - you alright? you okay? hey hey hey! (make them stop) Is he hurt? He IS hurt? ow ow? (looks very sad and then very softly says: oh sh*t)
Later in the film there was a cat in the apartment that cried as it was stepped on - and for several minutes Esme kept asking 'where's the kitty? kitty okay?' Eventually the film showed the kitty okay again and I hear 'there's the kitty - you're aright!'
We're also taking care of Iggy and her litter of puppies. Esme has lots to say about them, colors of puppies, what they are doing etc etc... I'm amazed she is starting to pick up our animals' names now and more than just Iggy (which we named because she could say it). I've heard her say Misha and Ninja.
She was making her little playmobil girls swim in her cereal milk today *sigh* and then we had to go wash their hands. Her frogs are getting 'adjustments' with a plastic wrench tonight. She puts it around their neck and says 'ow? ready?'
She's also picked up this very cute response to anything we ask her if she wants to do. 'Oh, OKAY! (walk off in the direction of doing that activity)'

Emily is also starting to talk A LOT and now we can understand (most) of what she says.
There is a little light in her room that stays on when we read at night. Well, the other night Peter turned it off as he walked out of the room. (I was still in there with Emily.) Emily looks at me and says the following two things:
"Daddy turned off the light"
"Don't worry, I will turn it back on"
She then climbed off the bed and turned it back on.
Love it!!
