Hazel watchers out there, know ye that she can, at 16.5 months:
- say ~170 words and understand more
- recognise a rainbow on my screen and go to find her book on rainbows
- eat with a spoon without always spilling everything
- build many blocks into a stack (7 is her record so far)
- make the sounds of a sheep, cow, dog, cat, parrot or duck
- say "eight" when parked on my shoulder and I say "pieces of"
- stand on parental feet for a dance
- turn in a circle and fall over dizzy when being read the book about the "rosie ring"
- demand paper and pen ("draw!") when she wants a good scribble
- throw a ball (or anything hand-sized) with some force
- play the piano on my iPhone and her little crocodile xylophone ("ding-ding")
- give kisses to mummy and daddy at bedtime and whenever else she feels like it
- remember that nana will be coming in a couple of days time
- wave like a crazy thing when she figures out that someone is leaving
- smile like an angel
