Having kids is just so much fun! I can't imagine life with out the little man. Now that we have little Emma on the way the excitement and entertainment will just double! :)

Nelson's stuck on the word "ball" and the fact that it's almost Christmas isn't helping because he's seeing balls or Christmas ornaments everywhere! At the mall, driving down around town, the grocery store, church I hear "ball, ball, ball" all day! So today he was going "ball, ball, ball, ball, ball" finally Rene responds, "Nelson, go get your ball". A few seconds later I decided to follow, and found him trying to pull the tree over so he could "get the ball!" As soon as he saw me he began pointing at the tree saying "ball, ball, ball" Maybe I should have gone with square ornaments this year. ;)

Here are two websites I was looking at today on Language Development. The second is from the American Speech Language Hearing Association. It is a really great guide for developing your child's language skills and is broken down by ages. Enjoy.
