Counting

Hadley is great at counting.
She can say most of the numbers between 1 and 13 in order.  (11 and 12 are hard and 13 sounds like t-teen).  
She loves to count stairs as she climbs up and down them.  Thus the reason she can count to 13.  
Also she loves to count down 3-2-1.  This usually results in her being airlifted like a spaceship.
I think it started from some of the songs we sing:
Here is one example:
Zoom zoom zoom, we're going to the moon.
Zoom zoom zoom, we're going to the moon.
If you want to take a trip, climb aboard my rocket ship.
Zoom zoom zoom, we're going to the moon.  
5-4-3-2-1 Blast off.
While this song starts at 5 it is still a favorite for her.

Counting down is extremely helpful with clipping finger nails and putting in hair clips.

One to ten are easy for her but she will not say them when I have the video camera out.
