three little words

Mister Jude has a lot to say these days. And it is so cute to hear him speak in his little Jude voice. He loves to talk about his choo choos that includes some pals named Thomas and Percy. Everyday we are celebrating some new word he attempts to tell us. Last night at dinner it was "cheese".

We had no idea about how children learn to speak before going through this amazing process with Jude. We have to laugh at ourselves sometimes with it all. About a month ago Jude spoke up as we pulled into the garage in Kara's car. He noticed Greg's car parked on the street and sweetly said 'Bye Bye Daddy Car'. Both parents started celebrating. This was Jude's first ever three word phrase. Sure we felt silly but it was a big moment!

By now he's jabbering with four words phrases occasionally and lots sentences we can't quite follow, filled with words like 'go' and 'choo coo'. It is amazing to watch and listen to our little guy develop.
