A Blossoming Vocabulary!

Jackson's favorite phrase now is "have it!" which he says when he wants to hold whatever he's pointing to. I have to say no a lot because he wants to "have it" with pretty much everything. He also likes "in there" to say he wants to get inside something, like a wagon or box. It's fun expanding beyond nouns, but also confusing since he could be saying almost anything and it's a guessing game. He gets very frustrated when you don't understand him.

He can also be inconsistent in his pronunciation, like he just said "ma-merries" for strawberries. My favorites are still "Oh Boy!" "Alright!" and "Utt-ohh" which he uses when he throws his teddy or "bit" (for binky) out of the crib and wants them back. His favorite word is probably "airplane" and he loves to sit in the yard and watch overhead for airplanes or birdies. The squirels in our yard make him mad because they run off too fast and he wants "mo-mo" (more).

He also stared to pick up things from Dan, like when I give him a choice between two things, he'll say "ummmmm, uhhhh" and stare off, taking forever to decide.

It's almost easier to remember the things he can't say than the things he can. But he still refuses to say "Grandma" for some reason, which is getting hilarious because he does love his Grandma a ton.
