verbal growth spurt

We've noticed that recently Cody has been using a lot more words.  Though he's pretty quiet compared to his chatter-box sister, he can hold a pretty good conversation!  When Lyla was 17 months old, I made a list of all the English and Japanese words she used.  You can find her impressive list here

At last week's visit, Cody's doctor asked me how many words he uses.  Off the top of my head I said that he probably uses about 20 words.  She was surprised that he knew that many.  I think she would be quite shocked if she knew that it's actually more like 48 words.  Travis and I made a list last night of all of Cody's words.  Here they are (and I'm sure I forgot some):
