He Said

Rane is quite a talkative little boy and even more so these days. He is closing in on 21 months and his vocabulary is growing each and every day. He is at such a fun age right now because he is understanding our questions (usually) and our requests. He does pretty good as far as obeying goes and, in fact, he often says, "obey," after we say it. We sometimes have to chase after him if he doesn't do what we ask the very first time, i.e., come to me or Spencer which involves punnishment, but he gets it even though he chooses to disobey. He doesn't have a majorly strong will like Ella Ann did at this age, and still does, so I consider him to be a typical 21 month old little boy! I wanted to share some of the "words" he says before I forget!

Hi Budeeee (When I walk in to get him up each morning and/or at nap time I always say, "Hi Buddy!" Now he says it back to me and often says it before I even say it!)

Okay, that's enough! He is such a funny boy and is still keeping me on my toes. He gets into everything he knows is hands off but will bring it to us just so that he can touch it, i.e., the phone, remote, etc. He is starting to be a tidy little boy because once he is done playing he will often pick up after himself and sing, "Keeennn up, keeeenn up!" It's great! Of course if he doesn't clean up Ella Ann or myself are right on his feet picking up toys! It now drives her nuts to have stuff on the floor....ahhhhhh, my clone! Today when I picked up Rane from the church nursery 3 different workers said to me, "He is so funny!" "He is very entertaining!" "He is hilarious!" Yes, thanks, I know!
