More Talk

See below the video of Jake talking more, as he finally nailed down some names for his sisters. Now he spends time calling them, like when he wanted to say something to Annika in the van the other night, and was yelling "Aka! Aka! Aka!" toward the back seats.

He also says "Wii." Tonight I was playing some LEGO Indiana Jones while Jake sat by, watched and tried to verbally assist me. "Blue money!" he yelled. "Key! Key! Key!" at the key that was sitting on the ground waiting to be picked up. And finally, "Bad man!" at the bad guy I had to defeat by hitting him with thrown chairs. At times he was more commanding me, with a very insistent voice, that I pick up that key. Such a helper.

Talk Talk Talk

Jake's language skills have taken off within the past 2 weeks. He's gone from "talking" to talking! Here he shares some of his newest words with you all. Listen for him to say zucchini, bread, Annika (Aka), and Abby (Beebee). You will also note that he's my little chef! Jake LOVES to help me bake! He's much more into it than either of the girls ever were!
