Milestones All Over the Place

My baby said "Noodle" today! Hubby and I were making spaghetti for dinner (with rotini noodles....so according to hubby it is no longer called spaghetti).  And I was letting my son add the noodles to the pot of water before it started heating. He was adding them one at a time of course, and all the while I was talking to him about the Noooooodles. And then he repeated me! It was the most wonderful and exciting moment. He said noodle and it sounded perfect! Hubby also told me he repeated "grapes" today while they were reading a book! ALSO four days ago he picked up a turtle statue and said "URTLE"!  Too bad he only says these words one time and then will not repeat them again no matter how hard you try.

It is amazing to watch him learn new things. His face gets so serious, and he sticks his tongue out as he climbs over new furniture or figures out how to play with a new toy.  It seemed like from age 12 months to 15 months, nothing new happened, and we were impatiently urging him to start walking. Then around 15 months he started climbing on everything, walking and "talking"....all at once! Although not very well yet, he also likes to try holding the spoon to feed himself sometimes now. These are exciting times for sure.
