The Toddler Years

Yes, we are in them. A mixture of overwhelming cuteness, inspiring learning, and infuriating stubbornness. Interestingly, he really doesn't say "no" all that often; he just says it through his actions. He also whines alot. We encourage him to "use [his] words," which sometimes works.

His language acquisition is incredible. He refines existing words daily, copies new ones said to or around him, and easily uses the ones he currently has. Words include:
up
star
heart
ball
car
mommy
papa
nana (Cheryl)
Bailey
Juju (Juno)
kitties
cat
puppy
choo choo
mine
no
outside (this is a favorite)
gogogo (going down slides)
cheese
cracker
cookie
water
milk
yogurt (gogu)
please
thank you

I'm sure there are more...
