Words

I've always said that I can't wait to hear what little toddlers are thinking and trying to say. When children start to talk, it's not just the words that come out but their whole personality. It's such an exciting thing for me to experience.

Isaac has started "talking" a lot more in the past month. He babbles and looks at you like you're supposed to know what he's just said. I can't wait to understand all the thoughts running through his little mind.

Right now, the words/phrases he can say (that we understand) are:

Dada- his first word (2/26/11 right after he had his tubes put in)
Doh which really means dog (first said March 2011)
What's that? (first said May 2011)
Mama (he didn't say this one until his first birthday!)
Lady (7/8/11)
Hi Dad and Hi Mom have recently become his choice of expression first thing in the morning. I love it!
Also, he seems to call us Mom & Dad as opposed to the traditional mama or mommy. Hey, whatever works.

It feels like he learns something new every day. Yesterday he went to the cabinet, pulled out a trash bag and walked over & put it in the trash can. He amazes me! It is a true joy watching my little boy grow.
