Kyle can read!!

We have two animal books that Kyle really likes. He will turn the pages and say the correct animal sound as he "reads" me the book before bed. It is really cute!

Outside

Yesterday, Kyle was standing at the back door reaching for the doorknob. I asked him if he wanted to go outside. He just stared at me. I asked him if he could say "outside" he said "no". I then asked if he could say "shoes" (he was barefoot). He grinned, walked to me, said "shoes," and sat in my lap to put them on. Later that evening, Kyle walked to the front door and said "outside?" The little stinker can say "outside"!

Cars

Kyle and I were playing in his room last night before bed and he was pushing a car back and forth making car sounds and saying "Honk, Honk!" I'm still not sure what he was honking at, maybe his cup of milk, but it was so cute!

Kyle and Trains

Last night I was getting Kyle ready for bed and he, without prompting, pretended to be a train (or to be riding in one, I'm not sure)! He's got a good imagination for a 19 month old!

I was helping Jay make dinner and Kyle was underfoot so Jay picked him up and said "Let's go talk about what words you know!" Kyle responded "Moo!"

Jay took Kyle to the circus with Jim, Juli, Hannah, Sarah, Dorian and Mary. Thanks for the tickets Jim! Kyle had a great time! He enjoyed watching the dogs jump through hoops, and the other animal tricks. Apparently, he was not impressed with the skill of the tightrope walkers. I'll have to get Jay to post some pictures. Dorian took a good one of Kyle eating popcorn!

Kyle has learned to turn the crank on the jack-in-the-box! I am very proud of my little boy! He has started bringing Jay and I books to read to him more often and will sit and listen to most of them!

Kyle at 17 months

Kyle is much more of a little boy than a baby. I think it's time he graduates to a booster seat. Yesterday I thought dinner was over, but Kyle decided to sit in my chair at the table to finish his dinner. He looked so cute sitting at the table.


Kyle's new words are "neigh" for horse and last night he fell asleep saying "uh-oh." I don't typically say uh-oh, so I am curious who taught him that. He says "row, row" if he wants me to sing "Row, Row, Row Your Boat."
