He Speaks!

This blog is an electronic baby book for me, so I want to record Jay's progress with his communication.  He is taking off.  He can 'count' to ten.  We will say one number, and he'll say the next.  Sometimes he likes to go back to one number (6, 7, 8, 9, 8).  He recoginzes the number 5 on the microwave and will say 5.   Every time we get to 10, we all clap.  I saw a friend's blog that listed her child's list of words, which I will now list for you with my own.
