words

Everett all the sudden is using his words. He really is working really hard and wants to communicate with us. Last night the 3 of them were in the basement (that's a whole other post) and he all the sudden started screaming. Of course I yelled at Camille bc that is 98% of the time his issue. It wasn't so I asked Av. She said she didn't know but only bc she was too busy to really take the time to figure it out. Fine, when I went down there he was doing a great job of telling us why he was mad. He was screaming his version of the word ball bc his ball was on the futon and he could not reach it to get it. So cute. Poor boy he was mad. Today as I was getting dressed I heard, "mommy" (his new fav word). I had to stop to figure out which one of them it was. E has never ever ever called out from his bed. He sleeps and waits and plays with his pacis until I come get him. ALWAYS so this was different. Took me a minute to believe it was him. Sooooo cute. Went in there and he was standing and calling for me. Melted my heart. Hope he does not realize how effective his calling for me was or we will be in trouble in the middle of the night.
