Tamlin is attempting to converse about time. Often things have happened last year or will happen tomorrow.
For instance:
Tam: "Mom, can I play on the ipad like I did last year?" or "Is Ciearra coming over to visit tomorrow like she did last year?"
Tam's current favorite phrase is "That's my favorite!" and "I know" (Sometimes heavy with sarcasm).
He has also been working on numbers and prices, so he'll say "look, mom, it's on sale!" or "It's only 1 dollar."
Jude is expanding his spoken vocabulary to include:
Ball (any circular object)
Up
Down
Hat
Huck = Truck
Vroom or Beep = Car
Banana or Nana = banana
Cracker
Binky = pacifier
Ducky = blanket
Quack, quack = duck
Moo = cow
Woof, woof = dog
Meow = cat
Yee-haw = for yee-haw or for horse
Ease = please, but more often he just signs it
Thank you = said whenever he gets something or he give you something
And just lately....Butterfly, which he says softly like a whisper.
I can't wait until Jude figures out more words so he can tell us more of what is going on in the noggin of his.
Thoughts, ideas, laughs, fears, and ramblings from mom
It has been an awesome adventure so far . . .
And there is so much more to come.

As Jude nears two year
We are now firmly in the terrible two's, on top of everything else that is going on with life. Brian, Tamlin, and myself are learning how to deal with Jude's rush of emotions and lack of communication skills, which equals frequent melt-downs for seemingly no reasons.
Jude's mind seems to be going something like this...
I'm awake
I'm awake, why is no one else awake
I'll push the talking dog button repeatedly until brother wakes up
Wake UP!
WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!
I'm wet
I'm hungry
I want my diaper changed NOW
I don't want my diaper changed
I HATE being on my back for diaper changing
MOM!
MOMMA! MOMMA!
Up?
UP!
UP! UP! UP!
Oh, now I see the candy.
I want candy.
CANDY, CANDY, CANDY!
No Candy?
Down.
I'm still hungry.
HUNGRY!
I want a poptart!
No, I want brother's poptart!
I only wanted part of my poptart and now I'm done
DONE!
I want out of my chair
I want up into daddy's lap in his chair
I'm still hungry and I want whatever daddy's eating, even if it was the same thing I was eating a second ago
PLAY!
Truck.
TRUCK! TRUCK! TRUCK!
I want whatever truck Tam's playing with.
SHARE!
Oh, momma's trying to write something.
I want a pencil
PEN! PAPER!
Scribbling is awesome
Can I eat pencils? Let's try!
Wait, pencils aren't food?
I'm freakin' starving!
Can I eat pencils? Let me try this again...
I want daddy!
DADDY! DADDY DADDY!
UP!
Down.
Nobody loves me!
I'm all alone and nobody understands how horrible my life is!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!
HUG me!
And this seems to be all within the first hour of the day...
