Wal-Mart LOL!, 43, keys, 44. hat, 45. bag, 46. book, 47. Let's, 48. Go, 49. yucky, 50. shoes, 51. bubble, 52. Dino, 53. thank you 54. water, 55. pizza.

Signs: He signs 45 of the 55 words. That's because I haven't taught him the signs. He also regularly signs 1. again, 2. sissy, 3. flower/pretty, 4. computer, 5. avacado, 6. toilet 7. change (as in diaper), 8. butterfly, 9. phone. He signs other stuff when prompted like swing, table, chair, sidewalk etc etc - but we have to do the sign first.

That's all I can think of. I did this list so I would be prepared for our next Dr's appointment. According to the experts a 2yr old should have at least 50 words in their vocab. So he's right at par.

His speech therapist took a job with Early Intervention as a trainer and had to give up all of her clients. She told her boss that she would give up everyone except Wyatt - she loves him so much - and he loves her. She said he has a wicked sense of humor that most kids his age don't have. She also says his eye/hand coordination is advanced - that's nice to know.
