Words

So Brennan has quite a few new words since I last posted words, but our dr is going to refer him to First Steps and possibly get him started in Speech Therapy. I am feeling a little emotional about it, but i know it is a good thing.

Some of B's new words that I can think of off the top of my head:
Mommy - yes, yes yes - he is finally calling me Mommy (though sometimes likes to call me Daddy!)
Airplane (sounds like abpl or something strange)
Car
Ball
Shoe
Poopy (and how cute is this - so yesterday he was accidentally given an ice cream cone at day care, which is really not that big of a deal except for the gas and belly ache is gives Mr. B - but anyway, in the middle of the night his belly was hurting and he crawled up next to me in bed and exclaimed, "poopy". I just wanted to laugh, but felt bad for him!)

No two word sentences yet. Dr thinks that it doesn't hurt to start speech, even though he understands a lot and each week has more and more words.........

Recommended a book to me called, The Late Talker. Put it on reserve at the library.

And a few more that I left out:
Mower, shoe, bottle, swing, step, and his first and only two words together are, "night night daddy".
