Hi! — again

June 1, 2006


Hayes using his “Mawnmowah”

Hayes has been saying “hi” for a while now. He’s just never been so good at using it in context. Last night, I was down cooking dinner as Jen was up getting the boy ready for bed. He was chatting a way, putting the words he know with words he doesn’t know. I decided to go up to say hi, and to my surprise, as soon as he saw me, and before he could say anything, he yelled “Hi!”

Great. This talking thing is awesome.

He’s also been putting “Bye” together with other words since the weekend. “Bye Car!” “Bye TC!” (the cat) “Bye Wall!” (He likes the wall for some reason.) And he now says “No” when I mention something to do if he doesn’t want to do it. All in all, the communication gap is rapidly decreasing and life with Hayes is getting MUCH more fun!

    Get ready for the vocabulary explosion. My nephew is turning two and he’s busting out all these words and making our heads spin. ‘Cheeseburger” is a current favorite. Throws that in whenever he can. It’s darling. And Hayes is just too cute for words.

    I know what you mean. I love it when our son talks to me about things. “Mama, blue garbage truck coming. Pick up green trash barrel.” I definitely know what’s on his mind and excites him.

    Love the mawnmowah! He’s going to be a great helper to daddy.
