2 words!

Matai is saying more and more single words, often you have to be his Mum to understand the pronounciation, but nonetheless he is attempting more and more regularly.  We are at the stage now where he should be starting to use 2 words together for words that he knows well, and he has been doing this for a long time with the words 'more' and 'please', often with the sign for  'more' followed by the word 'please'.  However we haven't seen it with other words as yet.

Every morning when Aaron goes in to get Matai out of bed, one of the first words that he says is 'Shower'. 
This morning, Aaron wasn't intending on giving him a shower and so he closed him down pretty quickly.  Matai was persistent however, and kept saying 'shower' 'shower'.  Probably realising that he wasn't having the desired effect, he suddenly very clearly (and loudly) added to his plea saying 'Daddy, SHOWER'!

I was next door, lying in bed, stopped in my tracks!  A very routine and mundane moment that no one else might notice as extraordinary, but for me it was a fab way to start the day (not so much for Matai, he still didn't manage to get his shower!
