old and new words

Good parents are supposed to record every major milestone in their kids' baby books....but I question, how do you know when your kid finds her fists? Don't you just do a double take and see it one day and wonder how long she's been gnawing on those?

So, Lydia has found her fists.

And Micah has gone from one word pointing, to three word sentences that form mini-conversations! This makes my eyes bug out as I am amazed at all he thinks and says...and how soon he'll be graduating high school.

So, I want to memorialize on our blog the following words that I hope he doesn't replace too soon:
motorcycle: gree-ah
airplane/bird: ku
train: toot toot
farm: e-i-o
dog: how
frog: bey
Lydia: ee-ah

I'd also like to just state how confusing it is to have these three words:
mom: mom
driving cars: mum
time to eat: um
especially when he is yelling Muuuuum from the living room....where he is contentedly driving his matchbox cars.
