Tatiana is so amazing.  Yesterday we were in the kitchen.  She opened the lid to Yogi's food and was digging in there.  I said, "That is Yogi's food."  Stressing the Yogi part.  Tatiana said, "More" and did the More sign language.  I looked and Yogi was out of food.  Isn't that sweet!  So, I filled up Yogi's food bowl.  I think if the container had been more full Tatiana would have given Tatiana food herself.
Later I changed her diaper, and we both looked in the bathroom mirror.  I pointed to her in the mirror, and I said "That is Tatiana".  She said, "Tot tee"  That was the first time she used her name.  Scotland was getting an MRI when this happened, and I told him about it when he got home.  He said he had been pointing to her in the mirror and using her name hoping she might start to say her name.  But, she hadn't said it yet for him. 

Scotland told me that during the day they went to the mall.  When they were in the playground a little girl Tatiana's age assumed that Tatiana was much younger and took her by the hand to the various places to play.  Tatiana went along with it.  Then one time Tatiana didn't want to go where the girl wanted to lead her, and she said something like "Don't want to".  Scotland didn't hear the actual words.  The little girls eyes turned into saucers because she didn't realize Tatiana was old enough to talk.
