Since Logan turned 16 months old, he seems to have learned to copy and follow in many different ways.  He makes funny faces and tickles the sun when Kai Lan does it on TV; he jumps, claps, raises his arms as Barney does his dances.  Logan also tries to mimic us when we teach him how to say words.  His very first word months ago was “ball”.  Now he knows “air-ple” (airplane), “nana” (banana), “apple”, and “S-de” (Scottie).  Of course, he also can say “da-da” and “ma-ma”; however at times, we wonder if Logan is confused which one of us is which.

   He knows some of his body parts now, he can point out his ears, head, feet and belly button almost correctly every time.  We still have to work on other parts, like ears, nose, mouth and hands.

   Tonight while reading, I was asking him to point to different pictures, and I was so surprised how much he actually knows already.  He correctly identified airplane, doggie, froggy, and apple by pointing to them in his big picture book.  It was the best reading night we have together so far =)

   Just an update on Logan’s walking, since his big fall on Halloween day he seems afraid now to walk without assistance.  He has been more clingy and will immediately go down to his knees when we try to let go of his hand.  We hope that he will re-gain his confidence soon.
