Luca's first story

This morning, we went to the farm of a friend of ours (Bull City Farm), because a bunch of baby lambs were born recently. When we got home and ate lunch, I asked Luca if he remembered what animals we saw this morning.













"Uhhh...HEE HAW HEE HAW"

"That's right! We saw a donkey. What other animals did we see?"

".... BAA. BAAAAA."

"That's right, sheep!"

"Mama...baby...nursies...BAAA."

"Yes the lambs were having nursies, that's right!"

"Chicky! PEEP PEEP"

And that was about the closest thing to a story he has ever told us!! It was also the first time, unprompted, he recalled things from his memory to share with us.

He was also using more adjectives this week... saying "Tree. Big tree." And when he saw the full moon he said "Moon! Light...ball...moon!" He will also FINALLY answer questions directly, like if I ask him if he wants some food he shakes his head and says "YES" or "ALRIGHT!"

He has had a couple more poops and pees on the potty as well. It's really weird, going from ECing up until a year old... to doing practically traditional potty training.

Using Jay Gordon's method we are down to one night nursing. The method basically says "if your kid is over 12 months and in your bed, it's ok if they cry". It feels true to us.
