29 months

At 29 months, Nadine is speaking pretty good and complete sentences, and every now and then, she'll sprout lines that are both surprising and amusing, and shows how she's really taking in all that's spoken to her or around her.

For eg, the other day, Mummy slapped her bum for climbing the window grilles at Po-Po's house. She turned around and said to Mummy, "hey, why you beat me?"

And today, when Daddy woke her up from her nap, the moment she opened her eyes, she said to him, "there's a big rabbit in Wallace & Gromit!" She was watching W&G before she went for her nap.

She loves the series of books Godma bought for her last Christmas - Goldilocks and the 3 Bears, Little Red Riding Hood, Ugly Duckling, The Great Turnip and The Magic Porridge Pot. She's made Daddy, Mummy and Bibi read the stories countless times to her, so much so that she can remember the stories so well and can even recite them.

Her best recitation is Goldilocks and the 3 Bears, but Mummy has not been able to capture that on film. Here's her reciting parts of Little Red Riding Hood.
