Believe it or not, one nice thing that Wilson has learned how to do lately is to say "no". I'm sure we'll get tired of it quickly enough, but for now it is great that he can express himself in this direct and obvious way. We've had almost 18 months of trying to figure out what each cry means: "Is he sleepy? Is he hungry? Is the sun in his eyes? Is he tired of the Eagles yet?" But now, with a little word comprehension and some emphatic head shaking, our communication level has increased significantly. Case in point: Wilson had to get out of the bath the other day. Nicole didn't put him back in right away and I asked her why. "Because he told me he didn't want to" was the answer. Toddlers are cool, because there is something new every day.
