Baby Speeches

My son just turned 2. Not only is he tossing out some spectacular tantrums, he's also showing some real intelligence and some cute behavior.

It is common nowadays for him to deliver long sentences & paragraphs worth of baby talk. They're veritable speeches! My wife and I just laugh with how funny and cute he is when he's doing this. Last night I belatedly tried to get some of this on video but he had paused, and then he slipped off the chair hitting both his chin and the back of his head and the video opportunity was gone.

If I manage to get one of those delightful speeches on video, I'll post it here.

The other thing my son is doing is that he decided on his own word for "yes." He says "hai" or "aye," always short and clipped, and emphatic and high-pitched. It's really funny. It's making communication with him so much easier, and he's less frustrated because he can help us figure out what he wants faster.
