Climbing and Chatting

I have learned how to climb. I know "up" and "down."
I am starting to learn colors - and even say some short phrases. Yesterday I showed mom "my yellow balloon." She was amazed at my verbal prowess.

Mom bought me a stool to stand on so I can reach the sink to wash my own hands, but I like to use it all the time. I carry it around the house, set it down, and then sit on it. Quite proudly, I must admit. And sometimes I put my stool next to the couch or something I want to get up onto, and I use it to help me climb. Other times I just lurch & fall & squirm my way up onto a chair.

My latest favorite snacks are "ants on a log" (celery w/ peanut butter & raisins) and raw green beans. I can say: bean
bread
brush
blueberry (although it sounds more like boo-baba)
juice
keys
door
light
cracker
shoe (instead of the nasal "hyew" it's now "sh" followed by "hyew")
amen

And mom bought be a potty, which I love to sit on, climb up & stand on, and take apart, but I'm not quite sure what it's for yet.
