Im doing an experiment today. I'm recording every (unique) word that Kathryn says. Its 8 a.m. and I'm already up to 40 different words, with a couple of 2-word combinations too.

Should be an interesting day.

I was inspired by my January 2007 Babycenter board, where the topic of comparitive child development comes up a lot. It seems most kiddos are not speaking, or only speaking a few words. I did a quick search on babycenter, and there is a poll for 16-month-olds on words with the highest choice being "20 or more". I really hadn't considered that Kathryn was 'advanced' in this area until I happened to notice the threads about speech.

so, just for my own curiosity, I'm keeping track today. I'll post a list tomorrow (or possibly just a picture of my list - because there will be a LOT).
