Below are a couple of the sentences he's been stating lately:
He waves when we wave to someone, and he wants to shake everyone's hand that we shake. He'll also so "Hi" and "Bye" to every teacher and friend at daycare in the mornings/afternoon (he's got a good memory for names)! Very courteous, that Jameston :-)
This is usually what follows when we greet someone who is unfamiliar (and familiar, too):
"How y'all?"
"Nice do meet you!"
We'll even have this conversation many times at night at the dinner table :-)
Some of my favorites from this past week:
"Mommy, Daddy, Boomer (Elmo, doggy, dolphin (members of his night-time brigade) the list could go on ) night-night, too." He does not fight going to bed at night, but he seems to settle faster if we say that we are going "night-night" as well.
"Mommy, get your coffee." He said this one morning last week, when we were leaving one room of the house for another, and after I told him, "Jameston, don't forget your milk."
Oh, and he is saying "Yep" and "Nope" a lot more lately. Seriously. To almost everything we say. I guess I need to ask more open-ended questions!
"My Tourtney (for Courtney)," "My Bett" or "My Babe" for Brett. I think I've said this one before, but it cracks me up how he thinks Brett's name is "Babe!"
This is my favorite, from our conversation the other night before we went on our family bike ride. Brett was airing up the tires on my bike and the chariot, so we had his car running so that we could use the pump (it's a standard). Jameston climbed in the front seat and said,
"I driving, Mommy!"
I replied, "Are you?"
He said, "Yep."
I said, "Okay, Bye-Bye."
He proceeded to say, "Shut the door, Mommy." and "Get in the back, Mommy," and "Bye, Mommy!"
Bossy boy, but it is so great to be able to carry on full conversations with him now. Wow, makes me smile!
