Language

Mostly, G still babbles all day long in Kreyol. I hear a lot of "gade" ("look!") and a LOT of "kite m" ("leave me"/"quit that"). Sometimes he just points to the ground and issues commands. I wonder how his bossiness will work when his equally-determined cousins Avery & Mallory come to visit.

But sometimes now there's a difference in his language. It's as if he's just saying the first two letters of every word. I'd guess that's the beginning of him losing his Kreyol, which makes me sad.

Not much evidence of English yet. He's definitely working on a name for Joseph, but it's not consistent yet. Sure to be cute since he continues to ADORE Joseph. I'll leave you with some evidence of that (helping Joseph fix the printer and supervising Joseph's xbox playing)...

Homemade Play-do

Brothers

G LOVES his big brother. He'll stand in the hallway and knock until Joseph finally answers - JOY!

Gaining

Check out this change!

21# was G's weight last July
21# was his weight when he came home
22.5# was his weight after just 2 weeks!

My view

Although it's rare that I'm not holding G - if I'm not, this is surely my view when I look down.
