La, la, la, la.....

Maya has figured out how to make the real proper "L" sounds, instead of the more toddler sounding "w". It's so funny because she realizes it and it must feel nice to make that sound in her mouth because she has been going out of her way to use it. All of a sudden her dolls have names like "poLLy" and "moLLy" and she is often heard repeating "la, la, la, la....." quietly to herself. When talking about aLex she emphasizes the "L" but when she is excited, in a hurry or trying to get his attention it quickly goes back to "Awex". I am cherishing those "w"'s because kids just sound so darn grown up once they disappear for good.
