words.

I feel like in the last two weeks, Ben's vocabulary has really taken off. Just recently he's said:

marching (the ants go marching two by two)
blankie
ernie
bert
ossar (oscar)
nooney (mr. noodle)
snuffy
jump
Mowsh (Aunt Marcia)
Neek (Uncle Nik)
Deein, improved from Dane (Uncle Dan)
shoo shoo (choo-choo)
posscle (popsicle)
bo-bo's (blueberries)
itchies (his foot itches him sometimes)
mlance (ambulance)
peescoe (police car)
two buses (even if he sees just one)

This morning he covered his mouth when he was coughing. I'm convinced that all it takes is two years' worth of nagging for him to learn what I try to teach him.

Also, Chris has taught him to say, 'I'm nuts!' I think it happened the other day when Chris said, 'You're nuts!' to him and he repeated it. I got a video of him this morning confirming his craziness.
