We are in a pre-communication period. On the one hand, it still surprises every time Gaia responds to our questions, nods or shakes her head, says her few words. On the other, I can't wait to really talk to her and fully understand what she wants (particularly useful when she cries desperately and has her various crises). And sometimes it simply confuses me. I assume she understands me and so I often try to explain her in a normal adult way what she can't or can do, and instead, I get yelling in return. In the end, it's still a small baby which wants her problems being solved immediately and doesn't yet get a meaning of 'later', right?
By the way, we counted how many words she can say and after including all bau baus and kokos, we got to twenty-two (99% in Italian, 1% in Polish). And I have to admit it's a weird feeling to hear my daughter speaking another language than mine. I think I have no option but getting used to it.
