Hewwow, would anyone like some wawa?

Daxton is really starting to talk a lot more these last few weeks. I didn't realize how many words he uses until I started making a list of them for an email I am going to send to his birth mom. Sometimes he even makes whole sentences...if you consider "MO NANA!" (More banana!) a sentence, which of course I do. And I am COMPLETELY unbiased.

I was trying to get a few of his words on video, but the little guy usually won't hold still for more than 2 seconds at a time. I did manage to get a few of them out of him though, see video clip below. (warning: Dax threw a little something unplanned into the middle of the clip, but Preston thought it was funny so I left it in. So if your delicate sensibilities are offended, blame the boys.)

Also, whenever Dax is "reading" a book and finishes the last page, he closes the book and says "Uh-en!" It took me a while, but I finally figured out the other day that he is saying "The End!"

As excited as I am about Daxton talking, it is causing a little problem for me. I am starting to talk like him. The other day I asked a friend if she wanted some "Wa-wa" (water) and didn't even realize that I had said anything weird until a few seconds later. Luckily she thought I was joking...but it makes me wonder how many times I have said something that without even noticing. (If I do it in your presence, please pretend you didn't notice).

Sidenonte: In addition to his way with words, Daxton also has some mad dancing skills. Tonight we went to a neighborhood party and there was music playing. Dax was loving it and was dancing around like a crazy man. I was laughing so hard, I wish I would have had my video camera then! Maybe I will try and record some of Daxton's moves and put them in a later post.
