With the Good Comes the Bad

I LOVE how much Miles is learning. He's decided he can tell what kind of vehicle is passing behind our house just by how it sounds. He'll call out "bus," "motorbike," or "garbage truck!" He thinks he can get out of eating his dinner if he just hordes the food in his cheek - he'll keep it there for hours! And if you give him another bite, he'll just keep packing it in there. He's learned the power of cocking his head, smiling, fluttering his big brown eyes, and saying "please." He loves to point out shapes he knows like star, oval, circle, or triangle. Some examples of not so ordinary animals he can name: walrus, gorilla, echidna, jellyfish, jaguar. AND his vocabulary is huge! It's got to be from all the books he loves for us to read to him.

SO, in saying that, here are just a few of his GOOD statements:
I'm gonna get you. (even though he runs away from you ;) )
Pardon me.
Let's go see.
Come on, come on, come on.
Help me, please.
I love you.
Did you hear that?
Want a kiss? (course he teases me by running away before giving me one)
Hug me, hug.
Honey, honey.

And the NOT so good:
Go away.
Stop it.
Don't do that.
I want it.

We REALLY have to watch what WE say because EVERYTHING is repeated by our intelligent, observant, very vocal little boy. Love it!
