Macy is getting much better every day with saying words.  Mostly names so far...but it's a start.  She is getting better at understanding me too.  I ask her to go get certain things like a diaper and wipes and she does it.  I can ask her yes or no questions about what she wants to eat for a meal, or even if she is hungry, stinky, or sleepy.  I'd say she is doing pretty well!
