Words, words and more words . . .

Although we have been through the word learning curve with Raegan, I am still very impressed when Gavin learns a new word. I have to admit that I was very worried about his talking because he is 20 months and doesn't know a ton of words. However, these last two weeks have brought about a lot more words! Woo hoo! Even though it isn't one of his new words, my favorite is "Top!" with the hand in front of him. He is usually telling Raegan to stop bugging him.



Last night though, I heard him say three new words in about 1 hour! This just amazed me. We were at the car dealership attempting to get our SUV back (another long story!). To keep the kids entertained, I let them in one of the new cars in the showroom. Gavin sat on the driver's seat, grabbed the steering wheel and said drive! (or at least his version of it.) When I made him get out and shut the door, he ran back up to it and said inside. I was blown over by this!



When we finally left the dealership, we decided to pick up a pizza on our way home. The whole drive home he was saying pizza, pizza. This is huge because he normally taps his mouth with his fingers to tell us he is hungry.

I just can't believe how fast he is growing up!
