More Words and Stuff

Little Sam is coming up with more and more words every day. This was one of my favorite stages with Anne and it is the same with Sammy. Yesterday he said "cookie" with extreme clarity and said "Oma, poop" when he had a dirty diaper. He is also very good at inflection--his words "go up" when he's asking for something or asking for confirmation. His "dog?" sounds different than "dog!", which indicates he understands the purpose of his speech. Such a smarty-pants!

Speaking of pants, I forgot to mention that Sammy can identify many things by pointing, including pants, shirt, shoes, socks, belly, eyes, ears, nose, hair, and teeth. He also screams "teeth!" at night when it is time to brush teeth before bed. He really loves doing that and looks like such a big boy standing on the stepstool at the sink rinsing his toothbrush. Makes me say "Awwww...."

We were getting ready for a bath the other night and I told Sammy "take your pants off" and he bent down, grabbed the hems of his pants, and pulled them up to his knees. It was hilarious.
