T has really started to talk more and more over the past week, she is much more singsongy with all of her noises and laughs at everything.
M has had a developmental language burst, she is singing more and more songs and picking them up so quickly - she loves it when she can sing them back to you. She is talk talk talk about anything and everything.
M has also now got enough hair to put into a pony tail!! It only lasted about 10 minutes - but I had it all up! T still has nothing!
T has started standing and pulling herself up onto anything that she can get a hold of. She was pulling herself up on M yesterday and it ended in tears, but she is getting very strong. She loves to walk around pushing a little trolley that we have.
M also knows about the "bubby mummys tummy" and loves to talk to my belly and give it kisses and tickles. I ask her what the baby is doing and she says "growing". We have the ultrasound on the fridge and she walks around the house with it. We say "is it going to be a boy or a girl" and she answers back "a bubby". Very cute!

Talking it up
My girls love to talk - which is great, cause I love to hear them talk. Its so amazing watching how their speech is developed and what words have been easy or hard to pick up.
M was saying her name before she was 1 and really tries hard to say words back to you - unless she thinks that she cannot say it! M would talk in her sleep if we listened carefully enough. She comments on everything that is going on in our day. She talks to her toys and to our animals and to anyone that will listen. She uses 3,4 &5 word sentances more and more every day. When we are driving in the car, she will just sit there and tell me all about what she can see out her window. She loves to look for the moon at the moment and also keeps asking about school - "Maisie school?" "Maisie school bus?". She has also started saying "me", so where before it was "daddy come sit maisie", its now "daddy come sit me". She is calling T by her full name now, but when she really wants her attention, she will call her "sister" just to get the point across!
T is saying the "mummmmummm" and "daadddaaaadda" with the naa and the baa sounds as well, but she has just started doing this weird growling voice - like she is trying to be a scary little monster or something. I think she pbly got it from M, but she does it all the time now - and it sounds crazy! She will be making the most beautiful little noises, and then all of a sudden - RAHHRRAHHAHHHA, right from down the back of her throat. She has a really great laugh that comes all the way from her belly, and she loves it when her sister will laugh back at her, they go on and on and on until they are all laughed out!

HAIR!!
So, both M & T were born with little hair on their tiny teeny heads, which meant that its been a slow and steady growth up to now.
M has a nice full head of hair which can kind of be pulled back into a pony tail, but not without 100 clips holding it up. T has been exactly the same - slowly slowly getting there, with nothing really at all going on as yet. They both have a blonde look at the moment and T looks like she may have a tad of redish blonde going on - but it is really too soon to tell.
Its been a hard road to travel down, as all the other kids around them have a massive amount of hair - and they get called boys all the time.
Neither of them have had haircuts as yet - so it will be interesting when we have to go for the first time - I think I will cry at the fact that its taken so long to get a nice head of hair, and someone will be cutting it off to put in the bin!!
