Bobcat love

Over the weekend James had to do snow removal from our own building so I bundled the little guy up so we could head outside to watch. He was so excited but when it came time for loading the trucks he stood perfectly still on the front porch watching his dad make the bobcat dance. I was worried I would have to hold him back while we watched but he stood like a statue while the machines were running. Then, once James stepped out of the bobcat Logan yelled: "Dad! Bob!" - as in 'bobcat', not the name :) I guess that's the first clear almost phrase he's said so far. Not surprising it was about his two favourite fun things!
He really is speaking a lot these days. I'm pretty sure he said "push the button" the other day (something he loves to do and we instruct him to do quite a bit in certain contexts) and along with a growing vocabulary he is speaking gibberish all the time (and quite expressively). He has come to the point where he will verbalize when he's on the phone with another person (before he wouldn't speak but would smile when he heard someone on the phone. He would only speak when he was playing with the phone). He's turning into quite the verbal little guy. Also just the past couple days if he wants something from, say, the counter I will hold an object up and if it isn't the one he means he will shake his head 'no'. So funny! He hasn't said anything that sounds like 'no' yet but he certainly has the concept down! It's just so much fun getting to know my little man's character (it's mostly good so far...) as it develops.
