Tank-oo!

So it was a lot harder than I thought to get a decent video of Connor saying some words.  So what did I end up with?  Four videos!  Haha.  None of them are amazing in terms of him talking, but he says at least one thing in all of them and he's just so darn cute I couldn't decide which ones to leave out.

I sure love when kids start to talk.  The only thing he really says at the right time is "Thank you", the others he'll just say randomly or when we ask him to say them.  But it's a start!  It makes it so much easier when kids can just tell you what they want!  His favorite word he started to say this week is "no".  How lovely.  He said it about forty times in Relief Society yesterday as I pulled out everything I could think of to interest him and he just shook his head and said "no" everytime.  Ack!

Here are a few of the things he's been saying more regularly:
  • Thank you! ("tank-oo")
  • Please
  • Bye-bye
  • No
  • Mama
  • More
  • All done!
  • Yeah & Yea!
  • Good job (in some form, although never in the videos, sorry)
  • Ball
From Sunday morning - "mama" (sort of), "no", sign for "please"
(Oh, and we had the missionaries over for dinner the night before so that's why our kitchen table was in the living room!)
"thank you" and bugging Eli :)

Okay, this one is not loading :( so I'll try to add it later.

"All done" and waving bye-bye
And this was from last night - "ball", "mama", "please", and "thank you"
And lest you think he is always in his pajamas, the first were taken when he first got up in the morning and the last one was right before bed.  I promise he was dressed in between. :)

I can't believe how grown up he is! And I like how he shakes his head "no" when he said "no". Very cute! I bet having Eli around helps his vocabulary too! :)

Cute! I've been worried about Garrett, because he doesn't say anything at all yet, as I think I told you before. Hopefully he'll surprise us all soon and start talking! By the way, I finally posted on my blog, so take a look!
