Zoe-isms

Zoe is all kinds of talkative these days!  I read that at her age, she's learning about 10+ words per day!  She may not be able to say all the words, but she's getting a better understanding of what words actually mean everyday!  She's always pointing to things asking what they are, "Deesh?(this)" and won't stop until you tell her what it is she's pointing to.  She LOVES learning!!!  Hooray!!
