I like reading these posts when you have time to write them :)
I met up with a friend and her (15th month) daughter at the weekend. They had been buying shoes, so I asked the little girl if she had just got some new shoes... at which point she kicked her feet, pointed at them, and said something which might have been "shoes".
Which really threw me, because I've been asking her questions in that way for about 15 months. I hadn't seen her in around 3, and in that time she's suddenly got the hang of language, so actually understood the question and answered. I really wasn't expecting that!
