Talking and walking

A few months ago I took Riah and Jonah to my mom for the weekend and while they were there I think she found Riah's talking on button and accidentally cranked up the volume because before he barely said any words at all and a language of his own that he communicated in. But now he is a non stop talker. The other day I said Riah where's your sippy cup and he was standing in the kitchen and pointed to the sink and said it's in the sink mama, again I asked where is your sippy cup and he gave the same response and we we did this for a good 4 or 5 rounds because I wasn't listening to him telling me exactly where is sippy cup was. He talks and our jaws drop because it like uh huh on the little rascals all of a sudden he is talking and you can understand every word if you just listen. He favorite thing to say is that's silly or your silly. He is also my bug boy. We have a HORRIBLE moths at our house right now and he finds them dead or alive and picks them right up and throws them out the door or in the trash. He is fearless when it comes to that stuff... I am not looking forward to being outside this year with the creepy crawlies and witness how brave he really is. YIKES!

Jonah is finally showing a little interest in walking, he will walk with you when you hold his hands if it's his idea of course altho I don't think he's going to be walking for very long once he starts because all he really wants to do is run. I am in for it big time and I'm pretty sure he's just on the verge of taking off any day now. Jonah has also picked up on his vocabulary, and communication skills. He will now wave and say bye. Yes he is a year old and just figured this out. Well more like he just decided it was something he'd like to do. I think if he wanted to walk at 4 months he could've and he could be speaking full sentences and has by now but he is his own person and he does what he wants and watch out brothers or anyone else that blocks him from mommy, biting pinching and hitting are all fair game to him when he is on a mission.

Micah is our informant. He wants to know when, why and how about EVERYTHING and will then report back to his siblings or vise versa. His newest thing is Riah telling him no he doesn't understand that we really don't care if Riah tells him no only if he tells us no and Micah just can't wrap his little mind around it. He definitely  prides in being the big brother tho. He takes extra long turns on everything but eventually shares un asked. If you tell him to do something he immediately delegates it to Riah or at least tries to.
