Words Words Oh My!

Over the last two weeks or so Maddie has just had words falling out of her mouth!  Chris and I look at each other in shock and we ask each other if we both heard that!  Tonight she said Thank you, cheese, bath, school...all of these are new.  The past few weeks she has said Mimi, Poppa, shoe, sock, sis (for Sister..Prissy), cup, and of course dada and moma!  We have used baby sign to comunicate up till this point but now she does the sign and says the word!  Chris has always said that once she finally starts talking she will not be quite!  It is so much fun but so scary at the same time!  Are we ready for this?  It also makes me sad :(  She is growing up too fast!  She can brush her own teeth (not as good as we do so we try to do it for her)  and starting to talk!  Oh My!!  Although I am sad she is growing up so fast, this age is my favorite!!!  She is so much fun and loving!
