It's lonely around here

The boys have been in California for 2 weeks now. It's been so lonely without them! J and I have been going on walks, singing, playing etc. He likes to go on walks and will come to me, take my hand and pull me to the front door saying, "Buh bye? Buh bye?"

He's starting to talk more and more. Here are some of the things he says:

Buh bye :)
Mama (or usually, "MOM!")
Dada
Boo boy! (He's saying,"Good boy" to the dog.)
Foo (Food)
Wawa (Water)
Off (when he turns the TV off in the middle of a show)
Nah nah (when he wants to nurse)
Ah GO? (Where'd it go?)
Ei-yi! (There it is!)
Car
Poo poo
See (means peeps to him, which is what we call peeing)
heh wo (hello)
mwow (it's what he calls the cat)
OH! (no)

When I throw him on the bed, I count to three, so he was helping me make cookies last night and I said, "One.....two...." when I was putting in the cups of flour. Every time I said, "One" he said, "Fee! Fee!"

He says, "HI!" to everyone whether they respond to him or not. He'll just keep yelling at the, "HI! HI!" until they either respond or until we're no longer near the person.

I'm sure there are more words that I'm forgetting.

He's also going potty on the toilet now (although, I do keep diapers on him when we go out because he still pees in his pants at times). I do keep the pottychair in the living room and he has sat on it a few times on his own to go, but usually I take him to the big potty. I bought a seat reducer so he doesn't fall in and it is really nice because he doesn't get up and walk away and pee like he did with the little potty chair.

Here are some pics:



We sing songs and play games until he goes.



Then, we say, "Buh bye poo poo!"



In fact, as I was typing this, J walked by me and was saying, "Poo poo! Poo poo!" So, I said, "Ok, let's go to the potty!" I took him to the toilet and he went! Such a gifted child I have. :) :)
