Of parks, rocking horses, and doting grandparents

So Kadin is becoming increasingly talkative and less like a fetus (Tonia LOVES me comparing him to a fetus) over the last few days, thanks in large part to the brain enhancing regiment his grandmother has put him through.

Some highlights:

1 - He can count to three, sort of. When you say one, he says "too". When you say two, he says "thee". When you say three, he squeels and tries to tickle you.

2 - When you say Thank You, he says "tan oo"

3 - When going outside with his Nanny and Poppy earlier, he said "I ouside"

4 - He says DUCK a lot. He used to curse before. We like DUCK better.

5 - He says 'ot'. Tonia says he's saying "hot", but sounding like he's from Grand Bank. Apparently that's funny if you're from Newfoundland.

6 - When I say "AAAAAAAAAAAAGH" he says "AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE". Ask me about it, it's really funny. Really.

7 - When you say "CHEERS", he clinks his glass against yours. Then he forces you to repeat the process until you want to rip your own eyes out.

8 - When you say "Give me a kiss", he leans his head forward and presents his cheek for YOU to kiss HIM.

9 - When you say "HIGH FIVE!", he puts his hand up and lets you high five him, over and over. He doesn't actually do anything other than hold his hand out, but we consider it a skill nonetheless.

10 - He peed on my pillow this morning. Thanks Kadin.
