Blake, almost 23 months has been picking up words & phrases much more quickly!
Yesterday, Adam realized Blake calls Cadence, “sissy.”
Today, he said, “eat ice (cream).”
He started saying, “I wear boots” in Cleveland.
Other things he says:
Blake is an enthusiastic, physical kid. He jumps, climbs, and enjoys running in open spaces.
He doesn’t really have words, we don’t think. Adam thinks he has none, I’ve heard;
1) mama
2) dada
3) up
4) good (when eating)
5) love
6) cat (aaat)
7) jump
Also, not sure that he consistently uses them. At his doctor’s appointment yesterday, Dr. Brown seemed a bit worried about his lack of speech. She said we could try early intervention if he doesn’t pick up 5 words in a month. I’m not too worried since Bec, Abby, & Joshie didn’t start speaking till 2 years old.
Otherwise, Blake is healthy. He loves to eat fish, broccoli, & kale. He likes opening things with lids and putting things inside other things. He loves playing at the playground after school with the other kids.

If he wants to watch a video or tv, he’ll throw/hand a remote or phone at someone. Also smacks my chest when wants attention.
He loves to climb and eat meat. Loves his sister & Korean and Japanese YouTube videos.
Blake needs to be watched all the time bc he will definitely be getting into something he shouldn’t or get hurt.
