Charlie, you have had a language explosion this past week or so. I love it. We are getting so much more from you without prompting. Best of all, there are complete sentences. SENTENCES!!!!!!
Here are some of the examples I either remember or remembered to write down.
At the dinner table you were singing the same song on repeat. After the 5th time singing this song:
Dada: New song Charlie.
Charlie: No Dada. I sing my song. (And you continue to sing it.)
We have been working on potty training since we got home from vacation. We have you in just your underoos, because you do not like it when Jake (on all of them) gets wet.
Mama: Nice job keeping your underwear dry!!
Charlie: Does Dada know?
Again, working on using the toilet.
Mama: Lets go to the bathroom.
Charlie: Lets not. (You really had Dada and I laughing here. We still made you go to the bathroom.)
This afternoon we were sitting in the recliner together:
Mama: I'm going to start making dinner. (as I get up from the chair)
Charlie: I will have goldish. (What you call goldfish crackers. You might have gotten some. . .)
As I was in the kitchen:
Charlie (super big smile on your face): Mama! Mama! Mama! It awesome. There more Jake and Da Nevaland Pirates next.
After dinner we went outside to play in the sprinkler, you got upset because I wouldn't let you bring your book. You kept saying "My book" so I turned off the water to only get "My water." With the tears and the yelling I picked you up to come inside. As we came into the house, there might have been some hitting by you. So I set you down and I talked about how you needed to look into my eyes and we were going to work on taking calming breathes. You kept eye contact the whole time (at one point this would never have happened) and you calmed down. After calming. . .
Charlie: I no hit. I need nice hands. I sorry.
Melt my heart! Things we have been saying to you for over two years coming out of your mouth, unprompted. Honey, you have so grown since coming home. I am so proud of you and how you are making your needs known, while still showing your personality. Can't wait to share with Miss Jamie tomorrow at speech!!!
I love you Charlie-Bear!
