21 months old!!!

Times flies! Our cheeky boy is a 21 months old toddler now! 

Again, Xavier have grown so much this month. He's beginning to repeat just about everything I ask him to. I noticed that he picked up things very fast! His comprehension and vocabulary is expanding and he's able to understand things once we taught him. It amazes us how smart, compassionate and loving he's.

He started to string words together and are coming out with loads of two- word or even three -word phrases. "Purple shoes", "Baby duck", "Night Night mama", "egg crack", "mama push". I often hear him muttering phrases to himself as if he's practicing. 

Because he's just learning to make sentences, the flow between his words is quite amusing. The words are abrupt, with a long pause in between the two, like he has decided to add a full stop in there.  "More. yo-gurt. More. yo-gurt". This was the first ever two word combination... it took me a while to realize what he were saying because he was muttering it in such a monotone chant LOL!

Some fun things Xavier is saying and doing: 

• ask for "big hugs" before falling asleep
• When we don't want him to touch something, he will say "no no baby"
• always initiate "clean up" before nap and bed time
• started to use "mine", he will say "Mine or Xavier's pillow" whenever I try to take away his pillow
• Loves to say "Oh No" 

It's been another amazing month and Xavier is learning so much each and everyday. Papa and mama love u so much :)
