We have one last time to fill out the MacArthur-Bates Word inventory. Last week's results came to 521 words. Lily has hundreds of words beyond this. Perhaps more than 1200? I'll have to check in with the word gurus to see where this places Lily on her vocabulary. Mary Pat said they typically stop with the inventory after a child is 30 months. There are still at least 50+ words Lily does not know. Lots of the prepositions, pronouns, verbs, and words about time.
She has learned many of fun phrases recently. Not sure if she put these together or if she's heard them. The phrases include:
- It's not so bad
- Go get him
- That is not very good. I don't like it.
- Just a minute
- Good night, Sleep tight
- She is so nice
- Good idea
- It's too far. Carry me!
- I think so.
- I want to see my friend Ivy.
