Words

Ezra does not perform well for the camera, but apparently if you make him think he is doing it to get the camera he will a little. We got him to say a few of his words tonight and thought we would share with you. I know he doesn't have the best diction, but he says over forty words regularly. He knows a lot of animals, but for about half of them he says the sound they make instead of their name. When he says "ah ah" that is how he says "baa". My favorite words that he has learned the past few weeks are "hyena" and "Jesus". I love when we are walking the halls at church and he says "Jesus" while pointing at picture of Jesus on the walls.

I think his horse sound is my favorite. I also like how you guys are matchy matchy in the video.

I'm very impressed with his vocabulary. Ava is starting to say more and more, but Ezra definitely has her beat. She still signs a lot and her words seem unusual for a toddler. She babbles a lot and we are starting to pick up words here and there. I love Ezra's cow and horse sounds! I can't wait to here more!

Great job Ezra! I visited Anne & Craig when Parker had just learned to say Jesus. She called everyone with a beard Jesus for a while.
It is wonderful when kiddos start being able to tell you what they want. I'm sure it saves them lots of frustration as well.
