Almost Singing & Talking



Helaman loves to sing songs, especially ones with actions. Daddy taught him to put this piece of cardboard over his head and act out “Little Cabin in the Woods”. He thinks it is so funny!

Helaman is at the age where he is constantly busy, and he’s keeping mommy really busy, too! She hasn’t even had tiem to update his web site for a long time. (That’s a good excuse, right?) But he’s tons of fun. He loves to laugh, and loves to be laughed at even more. Right now he’s working really hard on jumping, though it’s still just a violent toe-rise.

He’s trying really hard to talk right now, and is in to small sentences, like “help me”, “Bompa’s bed” and “bye-bye da-da”. He’s finally willing to try words he’s not quite sure how to say, so his vocabulary is growing by leaps and bounds these days. He talks in big long sentences, too, but then no one has any idea what he is saying. But if you say okay when he’s done, that’s all he needs to be happy.

He’s also quite the monkey these days. He loves to climb on his slide/mini-jungle gym and just about everything else. I am convinced he has a thrill-seeking personality. He loves riding motorcycyles, being startled, sharp turns, and anything else that gives that little thrill feeling. It’s so fun watching him grow up and develop into such a little clown and dare-devil.
