Talking

Have I mentioned how much the big boy is talking? Seems he's very big into it. And now that he knows his name (started using it about 2 weeks ago) he is using the 3rd person as his basic way to communicate. This is how he tells us what he wants to do or gives Dad a recap on the day. We were glad he learned who he is because he could say all his cousins names and identify them but not himself.

I loaded the kids in the car this morning for daycare ("School") and went back in the house for all my bags (like 5 bags: daycare diapers, bottles and Gretchen's milk, Pamela (the pump), cooler bag w/freezer pack, Beth's work bag, Beth's lunch -- and I forgot my work keys today!!) When I got back in the car, big boy was on repeat, "Jackson park, Jackson going park...." I gave him the bad news, "no baby, today you get to go to school to see your friends, yay!". Nope, "Jackson goin' park, Jackson AdamnRyans house". Well, he wasn't bummed about school until I said "I love you" at which point he knew I was leaving. He's having a tough time with separations lately, but I know he quickly gets over it.

I am glad to have such a entertaining little boy!
