Can She Really Count?

I am a little freaked out here. Maybe other mothers of girls will roll their eyes at me but Elliott could never do the things Beth is doing at her age. Yesterday I sat down next to her while she was playing and listened to her talking. She was counting the sections on one of her toys! She went all the way up to 13 (although she missed number five). Do girls typically do this at 26 months (she is actually only 23 months)? She also knows most of her letters. I think she is just very verbal and likes to talk -- not that I want to reinforce stereotypes...

Now she is uttering Japanese, Spanish and French from her Baby Einstein DVDs. I know she hasn't actually learned those words but she is mimicking the voices on the DVD. I am sure she will follow Mommy's footsteps into some career like public relations. ;-)
