Have I mentioned Anderson keeps us in stitches? Since he's parroting like crazy (yay!) we decided to teach him our first names on a whim today. I was calling for Bri in the park and Anderson just started spouting "Bri, Bri"...so it began. Well he took to it quickly and now I feel that if he were to get lost and someone asked what are your parents names he would say Brian and Dawn, with enough clarity someone could figure it out.
Cut to bedtime. Bath time ends, nekkid Anderson runs to his room, hops on his bed, looks around and says, "Dawn, where's my lovey?". Brian was in his room at the time so I thought he told him to say it. Turns out if was unprompted. Bri and I were dying. It was so cute and funny at the same time. Okay, a bit of a tear of relief too - the last month has been AMAZING in terms of speech. His SLP told us that since he started to finally parrot we're out of the woods, he should pick speech up quickly. Bri and I have been chuckling all night.
