It is Friday again, thank goodness for that. I have another video for you. I guess Friday is video day. So this week in the life of Desmond it has been all about talking, pointing, grunting, being sneaky or just showing his frustration.
Lets start with talking for example. I say “Hey Jackie dinner is ready” he says “KAACKIEEE! KAACKIEE!” Oh yes he knows who his momma is, and she is KAACKIE! Also “EAT” is another of his favorite words. You can also ask him questions, and usually the answer is YESH (like Sean Connery) or NUH.
When I come home from work now he wants to be picked up ASAP. As soon as he is picked up he points. Points to something, anything it does not matter, but he wants to make sure I know about it. The pointing is always followed by a questionable grunt, like Tim Allen on tool time.
Sneaky, oh yes he is learning to be sneaky. He can climb up on chairs and reach things he is not supposed to reach. If he hears you coming around the corner he will turn around sit on his butt and look innocent and smile. Very sneaky Dr. Jones, veeery sneaky.
Frustration, this is a hard one to watch, he gets frustrated when he is unable to accomplish something on his own. There is one chair in the living room he wants to get up in soo bad, but its just an inch too high. He will climb and scramble and hike that leg up, but its just too much. This is when he hulks out. This is hard to watch. Yesterday I helped him up into the chair, gave him a snack, a drink, and flipped the channels to find some cartoons. I never made it to the cartoons, because go-kart racing was on the speed channel. Immediately its VROOM VROOM, VROOM VROOM for 20 minutes. That boy loves him some cars. The picture above is him enjoying all that. The video below is from last week. We had him try his new pool and swim suit. We think he likes it. Have a great weekend!

I just discovered your blog. This absolutely great fun!
