I've been having a lot of fun listening to Ethan learn to talk lately. It is so sweet to hear his little voice trying so hard to form words. It makes me cry, though. I want him to be little forever! This stage is so darn cute. One minute he is driving me crazy getting into trouble and in a split second he'll look up at me and attempt to say please, but it sounds like "Pease," and my frustration melts away. I hope he doesn't learn to say too many things correctly for awhile. I want to enjoy the cuteness awhile longer.
"Gi-un wobot," (Giant robot...as in the robot from The Iron Giant. Easily his favorite movie. He requests it every day and even goes up to other moms at the playgrounds and tells them about it. Cracks me up. I love watching other people smile down at him as he tells them about it, then see him trot away to go play.)
"Coo-key," (Cookie. He has quite the sweet tooth, this one.)
"Mah-na," (Banana)
He also says "Pease"and 'Tanks" before and after most requests, unprompted. Makes me so proud.
"Pah-kee," (Pancake)
"Heh, whe Peddy," (Hey, where's Perry? A catch phrase from their favorite TV show, Phineas and Ferb.)
"Poosh." (Push. Unfortunately Katie is not very interested in using words to solve problems these days and he learned to tell on her.)
"Ho be," (Help me.) So CUTE! I love that he's starting to make sentences with this phrase: "Ho be, Dad-dee." (Help me, Daddy.) "Ho be miwlk." (Help me milk.) "Ho be suck." (Help me stuck.)
Such a cute little guy. I can't believe he's almost 2!
