"Want some milk."

Okay. So lately, Esther's been mimicking more and more words we say. I haven't written them all down, but I would estimate she can say about 30 words or so, maybe more. Just lately she's started saying milk, only she starts it with an 'n,' so what it sounds like is "nilk," but we've been pretty impressed that she's got the beginning and ending sound down (well, almost).

Today, Eric was getting her ready for bed, putting her diaper on, and she was complaining a little. So here went the exchange:

Daddy: "Esther, do you want some milk?"
Esther: "Uh-huh." (which is our lazy way of saying "yes")
Daddy: "You want some milk?"
Esther: "Nilk."
Daddy: So you DO want some milk?"
Esther: "Want some milk." (!!!!!!)

There have been numerous times when we could swear she said an entire sentence, and this was another one of those times. So incredible!
