For months now everything Parker sees, touches or plays with is "mine" "mine" "mine". But, we've recently had a breakthrough with him identifying things that belong to others. He brings me my shoes and says, "mommy's shoes"; or points to Jon's car and says, "daddy's car". It's so refreshing that he doesn't think the world belongs to him. I'm not saying that he's willing to share the things he thinks are actually his, but it's progress. :)
Parker's also been working on forming sentences in his own little style. He loves to ask "where mommy/daddy/Tucker go?" He's also very demanding on his drink order - he'll say, "I want apple juice." Then in the next breath say, "No, I want strawberry milk (his favorite)." Then as you're about to hand him his cup, he'll say "No milk, I want lemonade." I feel like a bartender sometimes. Usually he ends up with three sippy cups each containing his drink orders. Ha ha - mommy's a sucker! :)
We're gearing up for the big 2nd birthday! I can't believe my little boy is almost 2...really feels like I just brought him home from the hospital. Time goes so fast - I'm glad I get to spend each moment of it watching him grow and develop.
