Critic's Corner


It's not uncommon to see Spencer browsing reading material as he stands at the book shelf in Brian's room. It's also not uncommon to see the majority of those books on the floor at his feet moments after he has started his browsing! Today he latched onto this Thomas the Train book and took it everywhere with him! Spencer is learning more and more words but it has to be his idea if he decides to let anyone else hear them. For example, Mommy was changing Brian's diaper while Spencer took this book off the shelf this morning. As he grabbed it he said "Thomas" very clearly. He refused to say it again when Mommy asked him to tell Daddy who the book was about though. He will say Mommy when asked "can you say Mommy?" but he still insists upon calling everyone Daddy. While Mommy and Brian were working on their numbers, Spencer would call out a "nine" or "ten" too! He still does a lot of babbling, but when he does say a word, it's very clear and easy to understand!
