Talkin about...

So Tim and I were talking the other day about how super uber smart our son is.  I know most parents say that about their children... and I mean it in no other way.  But we were also talking about how smart babies are in general.  To think that Arlo has only been in the world almost 14 months and all you have to do is watch him for a few minutes and you will see all the amazing things he can do.  He watches us all the time even when we don't think he is paying attention because the next thing we know... he is doing it all by himself.  Babies are amazing!!!!

Talkin about talking... Arlo is talking nonstop these days.  Now just before I give you my brag list I want you to know that even though he says these words, you might not understand them, but I can since I am around him all the time.

night-night
bye-bye
hello

You might be looking over this list and see that he does not say mama or dada... well he does, but everything else in the world that is not the things listed above are mama and dada so I do not count them.
I can also add to this list many other words that he will copy from what his father and I say, but once again he just hears words and says them but does not know what they mean just quite yet... so I won't count those either.

But now you can agree with me that Arlo is the smartest baby on the earth!!!!  :-)

On a more serious side, I am just so grateful to my wonderful Heavenly Father who has blessed me with such a fabulous little boy.  He has made me smile more than anything else in this world.  He is healthy, happy, and so, so, so, so good!  I am also blessed with a wonderful husband who I love more than anything because he puts up with me and loves me no matter what.  I am also so blessed to be having another baby boy in November!  Our little family is about as perfect as they come... and I could not be happier!
