Daddy bought this romper for Nadine when she was about 3 months old. It was bought online, from Liverpool's website. The size says "6 months" - but when the romper arrived, Daddy and Mummy thought - the 6-month-old babies in UK must have very weird bodies - long and skinny torso. Can't event figure out if the pants are supposed to be long, short or 3/4! Nadine could not fit into it until now - 17 months, going on 18.

The words that she has picked up in the last 2 weeks:

mai ("don't want" in Hokkien)

hua ("flower" in Mandarin)

cai ("veggie" in Hokkien)

powder

water

drum

peach

hi

mouse

fox

neck

head

eye

face

foot

toes

mouth

nose

clock

bike

egg

pear

comb

pen

hat

touch

fish (sometimes "ish)

and most surprisingly to Daddy and Mummy - nest - it's a word in a pack of flash cards that Mummy has been teaching Nadine with. But nest is such an obscure thing that Mummy never quite bother to explain what it is, and was definitely not expecting Nadine to pick up the word. But she did!
