Elijah is getting smarter every day, I can't even keep track of all the things he is learning! He's learning many 2 and sometimes 3 word sentences, and can pretty much tell us what he wants all the time. It's very helpful in the sense that we know what he wants and he doesn't have to cry to get our attention. However, since he knows we understand him he has even less patience with us when he doesn't get what he wants right away.
Also, we are well into terrible 2's. Thankfully he hasn't thrown any tantrums in a while, but he is definitely developing some serious attitude. And he loves to use the word "no." With his attitude he's developing independence which is all fine and dandy except now he doesn't need his mommy so much and he decides when it is time to give hugs and kisses and won't be bothered by them if he is too busy. Little stinker...
I need to get a good video of him soon because the things he is starting to say are just too funny. He's also starting to "read" books. He knows "Goodnight Moon" and "Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?" He'll repeat the words and make all the sounds, it's adorable!
Also, he has decided the sex of the baby already. When I ask him "Elijah, do you want a brother or a sister?" he promptly replies, "sister." Too cute! Obviously he has no idea what a brother or a sister is, but it's still cute to hear it.
Although if he's not in the mood to play that game and I ask him "Elijah, do you want a brother or a sister?" he shakes his head and says "no." Sorry kiddo, you're getting one!
