Lots to Say

Well, I know this is always my excuse but we have been SO busy this summer! We have already been down to the lake 3 times- with a few more trips in the works- as well as get togethers with friends, family, and a few suprises thrown into the mix! Busy! I have one free weekend between now and Septemeber and Im sure that weekend will get booked up too! Yikes! Sawyer and I have been spending LOTS of our time and the public pool because the boy LOVES to swim- and he loves that he can touch the bottom and run, not to mention go down the big green slide and ride a tube around the lazy river. He hates to leave, and always falls asleep in the car before we are even out of the parking lot!

Sawyer has really had an explosion of words over the past few weeks to a month- I have lost track of all he can say now- but he can really communicate well finally! He also nods yes and no and uses them appropriatly which is great. For example, a few nights ago I was rocking him to sleep and I said "Ok Sawyer time to night night" and he shook his head and said "no no no!" "Well what do you think we should do instead?" I asked and he did his "I dont know" shoulder shrug hands up move. Hilarious! He ended up going to sleep after all :) And a few days ago he used 4 words together- He told me "mama, I want CANDY!" He is just like his momma! I think that he is glad that he can communicate what he wants now also because he has been very cheerful and well behaved the past few months compared to right after he turned one.
