On Talking

Paul, at the age of 23 months, has decided over the last couple of weeks that he does indeed want to join the land of the speaking. His vocabulary had consisted of maybe 6 words...just the essentials like juice, banana or shoes. Now he is parroting everybody and literally saying new words everyday. I am constantly hearing his little baby-voice echo the last 2 or 3 words of whatever is being said.

The other day he was at the table with his brothers who were both holding up peanut butter dipped raisins and saying "Look at this, look at this." Paul, not wanting to be left out, held up his raisin and said "Look at this." too. ...his first sentence. It was so cute! His favorite word at the moment is...Waaaaait!!!
