Callum has rabies and other funny sayings!


Cally is just killing it! He is very very bright. Anytime we drive over a rail road track he says "rail road". He has learned many words including: up, down, Harmon, etc. He loves making animal sounds especially. Unfortunately he has also learned a horrible 4 letter word: MINE!

Today he was barking at a book with a dog on the front at Barnes & Noble. A little girl came up to me and asked politely if Callum has rabies. I told her nicely, "no, he has had all his shots."

Harmon always says cute things! Our best Harmon saying was a couple days ago at Target. He wanted a pink ballet Disney Princess swimsuit. Chris told him nicely you can't wear that, you are a little boy. Harmon replied adamantly: I don't want to be a boy I want to be a princess!


Not to be outdone Rachel is also increasing her speech despite her Cerebral Palsy issues. It is interesting b/c her speech has been affected. Mainly she thinks she is talking, her mouth is moving, but sound doesn't come out. It is like she has a mute button on. With a little speech work we expect this to go away (unless she gets overly excited it might occur). Anyhow she can say Ba for our kitty Bob and MehMeh for our dog Mackenzie. She doesn't have a lot of words honestly besides the usual (Mom, Dad, wawa, etc.); but for a princess she does have the most important vocabulary: bow, shoes and as of today PURSE!
