We all know there's nothing wrong with Noah's receptive language. :)

I've mentioned before that he can say, "me" but now he uses it frequently, when he wants to be included, or when he wants to do something himself.

4/29 - He said, "one" while holding up his one finger. We had friends visiting and the little girl's mommy "disappeared." Jonathan and Noah went up to check if she had gone to the bathroom. As Noah headed up the stairs, he turned back around to me and signed toilet.

He now says "no" instead of "uh-uh." As any who have had two-year-olds know, this is a mixed blessing.

He's working on "yes" ("yeah") but not consistent yet.

Every day there is a new sound that could be a word in the right context, and I'm confident that those will turn consistent soon.

P.S. Has anyone else used the word "vicariously" in a sentence when speaking to his 22 month old? Sanda got a great kick out of that one.

That's particularly interesting because "tea" was the word he signed frequently, clearly, and consistently with me -- more than anything except "please."

Today the boys were looking at the toys in the store while I went shopping. Noah pointed to a basketball and said, "ball" (baw)

Later on, he was playing on the counter. He opened the cupboard, took out a mug and said, "tea?"

(Jon says he said ball yesterday too, in reference to a marble.)
