The Things He Says

*UPDATED! There's obviously several things that I forgot to put in here. He's constantly repeating us and trying to say new things. But this will just give you a general idea.

Thought I'd do the first-ever post about all the cute words Caleb is saying. I'll attempt to spell out the way he says it, but I promise it won't be as cute as how it sounds in real life. :)

Mama~(another no-brainer)

Caleb has made up a sign for "dip". Like, when he wants to dip his food in, say, ketchup, he will hold the food in his fingers and put his hand up to his forehead. It's the cutest thing and we think it's hilarious that he made it up himself. He does it all the time. He also made up his own sign for "plug".

He has started to count too. This is what it was like the other day:

ME: Caleb, let's count.
HIM: foe (four)
ME: One
HIM: two
ME: three
HIM: foe
ME: five
HIM: fie
ME: six
HIM: sick
ME: seven
HIM: (his own version of seven) :)
ME: eight
HIM: nine
ME: Good! Nine!
HIM: ten!

I was going to try to get a little video collage together of him saying and signing some words, but that's not going to happen today. Maybe I'll get it together eventually.
