Within the past week, there have been a couple of instances where I have been rather surprised by Jackson's response. Sometimes I forget how much new information he is absorbing on a daily basis and as a result, learning new words.
Yesterday morning, I had just woken up to my alarm (aka Jackson) and went in to get him out of his crib. As I put him on the couch, he immediately asked for milk. Still one eye closed, I shuffled over to the fridge to get his milk and as I was handing it to him, I heard "Dank you, Mommy" in a quiet voice. What?!?!? All of this manner-training seems to be working! That was the first time I had heard a "thank you" without asking for it first. Made my day.
This afternoon, I was preparing lunch for Jackson. I asked him if he wanted some peanut butter and crackers. He said "Yeah", and then as I was headed to the pantry, blurted out "Yeah Baby!!" I just cracked up! I didn't realize peanut butter & crackers was so exciting! (His big sister has said that quite a few times, so he is obviously catching on.)
Within the last month, we have really noticed his speech developing. These moments sure make it a lot of fun!
