20 Month Vocabulary Count

Jack understands everything we say, it seems. He also repeats anything you ask. And he LOVES to talk. From the time he wakes up, until he falls asleep, he is talking. Right now he is trying to string tons of words together. He already makes short sentences but is trying to make longer ones. However at 20.5 months Jack can say:

Don't forget to get a quick video "interview" cause its even better when he SAYS all those things. I miss when Evie mis-said things like "cereal"... she called is "cielo." and she called the "coffee shop" the "key shop."
