Talk, Talk, Talk

While we are at home Derick will just talk and talk but if we go out anywhere he turns into a mute. I am not sure why but he seems a bit shy.We have noticed that he is staring to talk a bit.

The things he will say are...

Dad, Da, Daddy

Ma, Mom, Momma

Book

bubble

Baby

He just started to say baby today. He will also shake his head for No and wave bye to people.

He is getting so big and growing up so fast!

Nice days have come and gone

Poor kid! Derick loves to be outside, but the weather has turned cold again so he has to stay in. I feel bed for him.

This day I took him outside to walk around and wait for Grandma and Grandpa Hayman to come and visit. He was loving being outside. We have never really has shoes on him except if we are going to church so this we new for him to walk in shoes. He did pretty good. He is still really unsure of the grass. It is a bit poky for him so he will just sit there and not put his hands down. It is funny to watch.

Little climber

I had better watch out I think I have a climber on my hands. I had unloaded the dishwasher and because I am short I have to use a step stool to put a few things away. I turned my back for only a second to wipe off the counter and Derick had climbed the step stool and he was helping himself to what ever he could reach. He was so proud of himself, it was pretty funny to see.

Let me help you Mom

Derick is such a BIG help. If things are put away then he thinks they need to be taken out. At one time this would frustrate me but now I just let him do it so that I can get a few things done and then I go clean up after him. I am so glad that we got baby locks put on all the cabinets that we could. He really loves the drawers in the kitchen and in the bathroom. One of theses days he is going to start putting things away after he gets them out but I suppose that day is far off.
