Boy, is he ever. Sometimes, it's even with real words!
Joey is hitting that point where verbalization moves from noise to words, and it's really cool to see. Er, hear. Over the last couple of weeks, he's really started phrasing his noises; it was obvious that he was trying to say specific things, but that he didn't have the words for them. That's now starting to change.
Last night as Julie was rocking him before bed, he looked up at her and said, "Bye, mama." She put him in his crib and asked if he wanted the blanket. "Banket," came the response. "Bye, mama. Uvoo."
This morning he came with me to wake up "Nammy". "Mornin Nammy! Hi! Mornin Nammy!" Then (my personal favourite) "Mornin Nambo!"
He says please, thank you and you're welcome, he's starting to ask for things by name, and he's yelling a lot less. (At least, he's yelling out of frustration a lot less. Still a lot of yelling.) It's very cool; I can't wait until the boys can really talk to each other.
Maybe then I can go pee all by myself.
