Jonathan is talking up a storm now. He has always been a talker, but now you can tell he is really speaking in full sentences, even though 75% of it is still unintelligible.
Here are a few of the cuter (and more understandable) things that come out of this kid's mouth:
"Thank you daddy. Thank you mommy" (sometimes unprompted, when we hand him a toy or some milk)
"MOVE Emmy." When the dog is in his way.
"Hippo Thomas" When referring to a hippopotamus (I think he thinks the hippo is named Thomas, like his current fave, Thomas the Train).
"No, daddy." When Jeremy attempts to sing.
"NO Gus. Not NIIICE." At random times, unknowingly tattling on his friend from school.
"Heh Heh, Dee Dee pizza?" Said all the time. Apparently we have pizza too often with our friends Jeff ("Heffay") and Jaime.
"Daddy's juice." Beer.
"Fire truck! WEEEEEEOOOOOOOWEEEEEOOOOOOOO!!!...Uh oh...where fire truck go?" Just talking to himself in the backseat of the car.
"One, two, three, four, five, six, favan, ett, nine, ten, 'leven, thirteen, thirteen, thirteen..."
"A B C D E...mumble mumble...Q R S!!!!...mumble mumble V! W X!!!! Y and Z!"
While he is giving us a little more resistance now that he's really entering the toddler years, we are also enjoying him more than ever now that he can communicate so well. And his personality is really shining through. He is so full of joy and energy!
