This one's about Soren's recent language explosion. He had been really into saying new words these days and it's been a lot of fun for Karl and I to try to figure out what he's trying to say. If we can't figure it out, usually my mom can. For example, the other day as we were sitting in the parking lot of TJ's, Soren kept saying what sounded exactly like "opposite." I kept saying "opposite?" and he would look at me with a disgusted look and say "no!" I gave up and we went inside. I told my parents about it while we were over there the other night and after some thought, my mom said, "I know what it is...applesauce!" Soren seemed really excited that finally someone got it. He must know that I buy applesauce at Trader's and that's why he kept saying it. Cute.
As for his other words, they are new every day. Here's a list of what I can think of off the top of my head at this early hour...

sit

pills

nowaynowaynowaynoway

O's
Baba (grandpa)
Nanny (grammy)
Karl
Papa
Mama
side (outside)
clock (most used word these days)
two
wait
banana
eat
shoes
socks
byebye
nurse
snack
There's probably a few more that I'm forgetting, but I've got to wrap this up.
I would try to get a video of all this cuteness, but whenever I get the camera out he just gets obsessed with grabbing it. So you'll have to use your imagination or come visit - but not now!
This is one of the reasons I'm so exhausted these days.
{Ahhhh. Contained.}His favorite breakfast:
Ezekial bread with coconut oil
applesauce
organic scrambled eggs
He's really serious about note-taking these days.

Ha! Here are a few of my favorites from this post:
1. I love how he looked at you with disgust when you asked if he said "opposite". He was probably like, WHY the heck would I be saying that right now???
2. I LOVE that he tells violet "Place". I can just imagine how superior he feels when he can boss his dog. Awesome.
3. Pills???
Miss that boy!
CO is simply too far from CA!
He is precious!
I knew I probably should have clarified the "pill" thing. :) I give him Congaplex by Standard Process to boost his immune system and to fight infection. I got them from my chiropractor since he's been sick pretty much constantly since he started school. They are berry flavored and he begs for them constantly.
super cute. such a man. my fav is that he says 'nurse' because karl told me how his 's' sounds. AWEsome.
flo--- if you love how he looked at her with disgust you should REALLY come visit, cause he'll certainly look at you the same... i mean, he does it to me like i'm the craziest person he's ever known. ... but maybe that's just cause i am... hmmm...
