It has been a while since I've posted - sorry!  Meredith had a great time last weekend in her first experience as a flower girl, and her first wedding.  Anandi and Chandan had a wonderful traditional Indian wedding, and Meredith was something like a flower girl.  She led the procession of the girls and finally Anandi, and she carried a basket full of flower petals.  We distributed the flower petals towards the end of the ceremony, and threw them on the bride and groom as they walked down all the aisles.  Meredith made lots of new friends at the reception and really enjoyed wearing traditional Indian attire.

I think that Meredith knows the difference between her right and her left better than I do now - I'm really impressed.  She does a great job knowing which foot to put her shoes on and is dressing herself like a pro (well, it's hard to pull up pants in the back).  She's very articulate - I think that most people can understand what she says - and speaks in full sentences, multiple sentences, etc.  She has been working hard on jumping for months now, and I've seen some good ones lately.  She takes it slowly and cautiously up the stairs.

She usually talks to Nana on the home phone, and has been making big jokes about how Nana fell down (when the phone falls down) or is backwards and needs to be turned around.  When asked what shape Nana is, she says "rectangle," and Nana has lots of numbers on her.  She knows it's a big joke and cracks up.  Meredith makes lots of jokes and laughs when we do things that are silly, and comes up with jokes on her own.  I put her hair in a pony tail, and Meredith said - horsey, neigh! - and laughed and laughed.
