Vocabulary

Jacob's vocabulary has recently exploded and he is up to small sentences now! His current favorite is to add "too" on the end of every sentence he says. For example, yesterday, I went in to get him up from his nap. When I got in his room, he jumped up and said, "Elmo bed, too! Cookie Monster bed, too! B bed, too!" Or this morning, "Daddy, church too? Ella, church too? Nonna, church too? Mommy, church too?" Silly boy.....

Here are some of our current favorites:

• Cookie Monster--This one is odd since he can definitely say cookie. Sometimes he gets it dead on, Cookie Monster. More often, it is "Monkey Monter."
• Jacob- Geecub
• Brownies-Browns
• Truck-Chuck
• Green- Geen
• Grandmama Kay- Mama Kay
• Yes-Yeah
• Jesus- Gee-suz
• Hair Cut- Hacut
• Red-Rett
• Read- Reat
• Church-Turch
• Wide-Why

Another current favorite of ours is to ask Jacob who loves him. His most frequent first response is "Mama Kay" or "Aunt Jenn." We'll go through the list together, naming everyone off, but he has finally started to add God and Jesus to the list! I can't tell you how that makes Mommy's heart happy!

I wish I could include sound bites on here because typing it out just doesn't do it justice. He has become quite the chatterbox and will repeat everything you say! Time to be careful about what we say!!

It is so hard for me to believe that in just a few short days he will be 23 months old and is only one month away from his second birthday. How on earth did that happen?
