"That...That..."

Molly's always been a very curious baby. Well now she can finally verbalize that curiosity! Lately, Molly continuously points at various things and says "that" or in Molly-speak, "dat" with a very distinctive "t" sound at the end of the "da". One of the funniest parts about it is that her arm, hand and head will all be facing or heading in one direction, but often her finger is pointing perpendicular to what she's actually trying to point to. It's pretty funny! This picture doesn't quite capture it, but kind of gets at it with her looking in one direction and pointing in another.



With her new found method of pointing and saying "that", she can also tell us more about what she wants! Right now, Molly is very fond of ringing and listening to our Bhutanese bells ring on the front porch. At least once a day, she'll crawl to the front door and very excitedly point out the window saying "that...that...that", letting us know that she wants to go outside to ring the bells. I managed to catch the tail end of her telling us she wanted to go see the bells and then her reaction when we took her outside to ring them. Enjoy...
