"Help Me"

That's what the Gup said on Sun night when he lost his matchbox car underneath the door to the closet. He came to Mama and said "help me" and mama said , what do you need help with and he said "car" pointing to the closet door. Sure enough, when Mama opened the closet door, there was Desmond's little car.

We are so impressed with his language skills and his use of multiple word phrases these days. Some of the other phrases in his repertoire are as follows:

• There it is, I found it. (He often says this when he finds a book or a toy he is looking for)
• Mama, where ayoo? (when he comes looking for Mama)
  
• Look, found it.
  
• Uh oh, dropped it.
• Uh oh, broke it, fix it. (often said when he breaks something, which he does quite a lot liking ripping pages out of books, breaking crayons, etc)
  
• Eat it.
• I did it (with a proud look on his face when he has done something challenging)
  
• Look, spinnin'. (When he is spinning around in circles)

Desmond's got other phrases, but we just can't remember them all right now. Having a chatterbox of a big sister is helping Des with his budding language skills =;)

He is getting to be such a big boy!
