Cole is really into using complete, formal names. For example, he has been calling Will, Willian often. He even called my sister-in-law's dog named Jake, Jacob. Today, he suggested I call him Cole-iam.
PRONOUNS
These are still not right, but he has added a new one. If he is referring to something that belongs to a girl, it is "shers." This a combination of her and she, made possessive. It's fun to say and I'm thinking of using it. (Ex: Let's go to shers house!)
As Cole approaches 3, I realize that he is less interested in drawing than Will was at this age. So, I've started to suggest more drawing as we play lately. He got a new dry erase board for Christmas (mostly so he stops using his siblings' and leaving markers open so they dry out). Today I was drawing pictures and asking him to add details. Examples: Here's a snowman. Can you add buttons? Here's a house. Can you add windows? Here is a face, can you add the smile? I was happy to see that he CAN make these motions pretty well, he just isn't as greatly interested in it. Here is his answer to: Here's a dinosaur. Can you add teeth?
No making fun of the dinosaur...or his buck teeth |

Oh, I thought the dinosaur question was "Can you add snot?"
Love the language humor - he can call Steve, Steven but I wonder what my name will evolve into.....
I was going to say the exact same thing Jamie said about snot! too funny.
