Favorites

Is it possible that Megan (at 15 1/2 months) has a favorite color? Here's why I ask...
  1. Shortly after she started signing, she would sign "more" EVERY TIME we turned to the page in a book about colors. The page is the purple one. I first thought it was a fluke, but it continued to happen. The picture is of a purple monster, so it's not that the picture on the purple page is pleasant to look at. It doesn't happen as much any more, though.
  2. We have the LeapFrog farm toy. The purple cow is her absolute favorite animal of all the ones with the toy. Could it be simply because it's a cow? I don't know.
  3. One night this week, Megan was in her room "helping" Dad get her jammies. Well, Dad picked out a pair, but she reached in and decided she needed one of the purple pairs. So, Dad put the other ones back and brought the purple ones instead.
  4. Also, we have one of those wooden puzzles with 4 animals on it (zebra, purple elephant, monkey and lion). She consistently picks the zebra and the purple elephant. Further proof?
So...could purple be her favorite color? I guess why not! I just have never known a 15 month old who had a favorite color!

And not to leave you without Megan cuteness...here's video of her attempting to walk while only holding one of Dad's hands.


And here she is wearing purple, of course!

I have heard that babies that sign can express themselves better earlier...so maybe purple is her favorite color and you just gave her the opportunity to speak up! Good for her!

Precious little steps.

How odd that she already has a favorite color.
