Amos James

Amos actually says a lot more than I've listed but I didn't have room.  Those are his newest words.  And I completely forgot that he loves to read books.  His favorites are The Very Busy Spider and he can now make the sounds for a goat, cow and pig.  If we're busy and can't read to him, he'll just sit and look through his books by himself.

He can also say monkey and his favorite stuffed animal is a sock money.  I ended up buying it for him because he was trying to climb out of his stroller while yelling, "MONKEY!" and pointing to the display.  I had to pry it out of his chubby little hands so I could pay for it.

Amos is such a ham and will position himself in front of a camera or phone and yell, "Cheese!" so you can take his picture.  It's so sweet and sometimes I just follow him around with the camera just to see him smile and say 'cheese.'

Three posts in one day...impressive I know.  The fact is, my beloved laptop is going haywire on me.  I can't get the screen to come on when I open it so I either have to hook it up to the television with a ridiculous mass of cords or shine a flashlight on the screen while I work (interesting fore sure but it works!)  Hopefully we'll be able to fix it without having to cut off any of our limbs but we'll see.  I'm getting the hang of working with a flashlight propped on my shoulder!
