JJ has been communicating with sign language and spoken words for about a year now, but he started speaking in 3-4 words sentences this past week. Our usual bedtime routine is to give the kids a bath, read a book or two in our bed, and then JJ goes into his bed where we read another book. I finishing up cleaning up the bathroom after JJ's bath. JJ got into our bed with Jeff and Moira and called out to me, "Sit down mama" and pointed at my side of the bed.
Of course his favorite words are mine and no :)
Since that night, he has been asking us to walk, to eat, for a bath, to wash his hands and to use the bathroom. Amazing! He has been telling us his cars are hungry and tired. He is telling us Moira is hungry, wants toys and is tired. He is learning his colors and can say the alphabet with help. He can also count to 6 with help. He knows quite a few words in Spanish, but only speaks Spanish if we speak to him in Spanish.
Moira started to crawl this week! She has been rolling over for a while, and has been rolling around to move. She is just starting out with crawling and doing a great job. She is reaching for toys. She likes JJ's old favorite monkey rattle.
Moira got her first 2 teeth on January 2nd. She has one top and one bottom tooth.
