It was after her birthday that her vocabulary improved.. Since she has uttered her first word "nose"-- her mind just keeps on absorbing more new words.
She also got so engrossed with letters. So I bought her a lot of flashcards about letters, words, numbers etc. It was fascinating to see her play with her flashcards, while unconsciously gaining more knowledge. She learned A-Z in October of 2009, mastered the alphabet a month after, and learned the sounds in December of the same year. She was unstoppable at that time (actually until now).
She can also express herself like "get water", "watch mickey", "eat biscuit" etc.
Then on January 26, 2010... It was night time and Isha was watching "The Little Mermaid". During the stormy part of the movie at the beginning, she came to me and said: "Mommy, the water is cold." This was her first complete English sentence...
Her vocabulary development was really impressive. Her two- word sentences were now up to three or four. I can also order her around like switching off the lights or fan, getting her shoes, covering her bottle and others. She'd gladly do it. She can also tell a story; she would start it with once upon a time, then heads on--
She can identify the basic shapes but she still had difficulty with colors.
In totality, I can converse with her. I can ask her a question and she'd respond logically. My only problem with her even until now is she has has tantrums, and she's such a cry baby...
