Tidbits . . .

Twice yesterday Riley said two words together.  I was so cool!
As we walk the dog each day he always wants to touch trees and bushes and lampposts and he always points and says, "Touch."  I tell him what each thing is that he wants to touch, and sometimes he will repeat it.  So yesterday  he said "Touch" and pointed to a bush and I said, "You want to touch the bush?" and then he repeated, "Touch bush."  Obviously my mouth fell open, I was so surprised!
Later that afternoon we were in the kitchen and Riley was toddling around eating some goldfish and he was trying to share his snacks with the dog.  I said, "Don't let Jack bite your snacks." and he said "Jack bite", to which I replied, "No bites for Jack." and he stopped feeding him.  Jack was sad, but I was so excited!  It was so neat to feel like Riley and I just had a mini conversation.  Definitely looking forward to this being a regular occurrence.

On another note, Gary just read yesterday that Disneyland has put up their Halloween decorations!  Woo hoo!  We are so going!
