Sorry for not posting more often. We are just living the life. Our days are pretty busy chasing after our little man. It is unbelievable how much he has changed and grown. It makes me so sad to think he will be 2 in September already. It seems he learns new things every day. His talking is really coming a long. There are quite a few things he says that we actually understand. He is at the point where he will repeat what we say with prompting. It is crazy because he really does understand you when you tell him something. Also there are times when he will "tell" on what someone has done to him. Even though we can't understand him, we can tell that is what he is doing. It is a fun age!!! He loves to tickle people. He enjoys looking at the cows when we are traveling. He can spot them from far away. Music continues to be a big part of his days. He loves to sing and dance. He always amazes us at the dancing that he does. He is usually on beat which is impressive for a 1 year old as some adults can't do that. :) Kobe does all of his animal noises as well as pointing to body parts. He is starting to sing his ABCs. He counts things. He doesn't say the right number, but the tone of his voice and his actions shows us that he is counting. He loves, loves, loves to be outside. He will go to his bedroom door and want in. When we let him in, he goes and gets his shoes. Shoes on means outside. :) Well I think that brings you up to date. He continues to bring us tons of joy. He truly is a "Gift from God" (which is what his Ethiopian name means)
