Zane is talking up a storm! Some of the cute things he has said in the last few days:
We were having pizza and he was picking the toppings off. No big deal except he kept tossing the pieces on to the floor instead of the table. The second time he did it, Zach goes to put the pizza away, saying “If you are going to make a mess, the pizza is going away”. Zane replies, clear as day “ok, I don’t need any more pizza” and then takes his last piece back to his room. We both stood there looking at each other like “did he just say that?” lol.
Looking in the fridge for a snack, I was listing off the snack choices as I pointed to them. “yogurt, pears, oh…that ham and cheese from Grandma”, to which he started jumping up and down exclaiming “cheese! cheese! Grandma cheese!”
In general, he is naming people and things, lots of “uh-ohs”and “OKs” that are so adorable it is difficult to keep a straight face sometimes
There is one phase that is quickly exiting the stage in regards to talking. When he started doing ‘conversational” sounds, (it had the cadence and tone of somebody conversing) but could absolutely not be understood, I was trying to decide what it sounded like, because it sounded exactly like *some one*, but couldn’t put my finger on it. Last Sunday, when I heard him doing this from a distance I suddenly realized it sounded exactly like Katherine Hepburn in her later years. lol. He hasn’t done it much since Sunday, which means the Hepburn impressions only happened for a month or so, but once you realize who he sounds like, it is really tough not to giggle when he talks.
