I am declaring Seth's first real word - "ball!" I guess technically he says other things but usually has to be coerced. Not ball though. He is so proud of himself and is always on the lookout for one so he can point it out and yell emphatically "ball!" I never realized just how many balls can be found in our little world until Seth started saying "ball." As we go about our lives he even anticipates where one is going to be and cranes his neck until it comes into view - "BALL!" We stopped at Sports Authority on Tuesday and I thought his head might spin right off his head there were so many to point out! He must have yelled ball 50 times in the span of about 5 minutes. I was thinking that this might be a prime window to teach him some other words since he has been so excited about "ball" but so far we have not had too much luck.
Other things he sort of says:
Juice
Night night
Kitty
Doggy
Mama
Daddy
Uh oh
Whoa!
No
We have only heard him say "no" once but I am sure the floodgates are on the verge of opening with that one. After all he only hears it from us 100 times a day.
He does seem to recognize various animals now, definitely cats and dogs but also birds, cows, sheep, bears, tigers, etc and will correctly point them out in a book if he feels like it. Every dog he sees he points and makes a Barking sound.
Well typing up a blog from my phone is not super easy so time to cut this short. More on the 4th at a later date. And Seth is nearly 18 months so that deserves a real update.
P.S. I am pregnant again. Just found out. Due mid March.

Congratulations!!!!! I have been waiting to hear those words from you. You are so good at moving forward with your life, like sticking with your running, despite your setbacks. I wish you an easy and trouble-free pregnancy. March is a good month. . . after the holidays and getting ready for spring and new beginnings. Take care, Amanda!
WHAT??? I text you about my hairbrush and you don't reply with a teensy hint about the P.S. you planned to post the next day? :) In all seriousness, I am thrilled for you, Manda. And the prayers have already begun. Calling you soon. We're driving to Oregon tomorrow with my mom so I'll probably call you from the car. SO EXCITED. You've heard my scream via phone for these types of announcements before so you already know what to expect. :)
YAY Seth!
And yay you! I'll be praying for you! :)
