Project Alpha tells me all the time now, “Mama, you’re my best friend.” Sometimes he says Weapon X is his best friend too, or Dada.

Weapon X was bugging me for a popsicle today (after he’d already had 4) and I told him no. He started begging “peese Mama” until I told him to stop bugging me, then he hid under the table and after a minute I heard, “Mama, yeh ou no?” lol. That’s what I say to them when they’re not paying attention and I ask a question – “Hey! Yes or no?” They’ve started saying that a lot now.

Their enunciation has not improved yet, but they’re talking so much now and in real sentences, even Weapon X. He said a 10-word sentence to me yesterday, his longest yet.
