In his twenty-second month, Xander is: doing a lot of pretending in his play kitchen (so adorable); starting to be quite the little provoker; narrating his activities throughout the day; comforting the baby when he cries by saying “Kay, baby…Mommy here” and bringing him his pacifier; valiantly giving up his bottle of water (his own pacifier); and talking up a STORM (saying things like funny…”fuddy”…JoJo, careful JoJo, uh oh Pooh drop honey, see that, JoJo milk all gone, Mommy knee hurt, look Mommy more owie, please open…”pease ope”…bag, more buttercup, honey pot dump out, look Mommy egg, sure Mommy, like apple pie, green…”geed”…light Mommy, get honey pot, hi bug, I do rope swing…”ope sing”, oh great…”gate”, etc.).
