Words you should know

Parents all know that words for their children change quickly. But, when raising a child, everything changes quickly.

Tahlia has always had a lot of words; one of our earliest favorites being when she would stand at the front door door shouting "Da-ba-da" as the garbage truck drove by.

And Asher definitely takes after his sister.

Here are some of the current things he says:
A bump-duck is a dump truck
A did-de-doder is a skid steer loader (or a baby scooper)

But they're not just single words.

He often attempts to hit the phone out of Mommy's hand telling her to "Get off the phone."

When Mommy's on the computer, he let's her know she needs to "put that down."

But he is also amazingly sweet. When he snuggles in close to Mommy, he often says, "Mommy's baby." This was fun, until, one day, Daddy tried to get a "Daddy's baby." I'll admit, I tried to push him to it, "Asher," I asked as I hugged him close, "Whose baby are you."

He snuggled in close and I heard a muffled, "Mommy's baby."

Ah, the things they say.
