Here's Claudia telling us what's on her card. We bought some alphabet/animal playing cards. She knows which ones are the birds (there are a few) and she says "bir" when she sees them. She also knows the bear and says "ber". She knows the rhinoceros and this morning when I said the word she said "os os os".
She's babbling like crazy. On the weekends when Peter is making a latte, she raises her voice and talks at the coffeemaker. We're not certain if she thinks it's hard of hearing or if she's angry with it. Either way, it's hilarious!
New words (besides bird and bear):
airplane (she says it when she hears/sees one flying overhead)
belly (she likes to show her belly and pat it)
ready
up
Well, she's getting there. We were eating lunch (a bento box from Sushi Boat) and she wanted her own set of sticks. She did a lot of poking at her food with them and general orchestrating and tapping on her tray. And then she figured out that she could put them in her mouth another way.

After we returned from a walk and collapsed the stroller, Claudia started collecting our shoes from the shoe rack and stacking them on top of each other. You can't see them all, but she stacked 4 pairs of shoes.
Gina came to visit at the end of August because Kelly was the best man in Gary's wedding. So we needed someone to watch Claudia for Thursday (bachelor party), Friday (rehearsal and dinner) and then Saturday (the wedding). The first thing Claudia did was show off her walking to Auntie Gina. I don't think I've ever seen her walk so much at one time!
