Jaydan speaks!!

Okay, so he's been communicating rather well for a long time now but his words have been few and somewhat broken. Things like "daddy" and "pa" (for grandpa) have been around for awhile; "juice" and "please" are also well used. Jaydan FINALLY said "mom" at 17 months... I was beginning to wonder if would ever be uttered from his mouth. I must say that I am SO happy that he's finally calling me by some sort of name!

But, the biggest shocker for me was 2 days ago when he decided to throw out a very clear and distinct "dinosaur!" Threw me for a loop... at first I thought I was hearing things, hoping that I'd heard such a large word from my 18 month old. But, then it came again 3 additional times in the same day, "dinosaur!" followed by his signature stomping around. I LOVE IT!! Now that a 3 syllable word has made its way into the vocabulary, we're now working on reciting the alphabet.

Children are amazing.
