Talking, talking, talking is what he does best. He likes to still babble but, tries hard to repeat some words we say. He speaks in short phrases (examples: it's aah gone, daddy's book, more peese, and mom up) and likes to say "hey" as a greeting. It's sweet. We have been working on saying please and thank you too! He's definitely not consistent, but he's getting there. Just yesterday, he said "open peese." Translation: 'open please.' You probably didn't need the translation did you? Anyway, he's a talker and doer!
There is so much Brayden James does and says. BUT, the most important things are, he is demonstrating the ability to love and be so very kind. He hugs, kisses, pats, snuggles, shares, follows some very simple directions (I sincerely think out of respect). He is a happy kid and if I want anything for my children, it's for them to be happy, humble and experience humility...The THREE H's!
I couldn't end this post without including PLAY! Brayden James plays like it's nobody's business. Yay for playing! I have to say right now, he is demonstrating some "my way OR the highway) behaviors when it comes to playing. I mentioned earlier that he shares and he does but, sometimes it has to be on his terms. That's okay. He can even get mad and turn his back and sit or stand quietly (kinda like a silent fit or giving you the silent treatment). Honestly, if no other noise..the silence is profound. It's kinda funny. We don't laugh though....at least we don't let him see anyway. So, we ignore it and our main behavior management technique is distraction and consistency! So far so good. So back to play: Take a look for yourself...
Here I come daddy!
