LOUDLY, yet appropriately) but he does understand complex commands that i'm pretty impressed with. for example, i can tell him that he needs to get ready to take a bath. he removes his clothing and his diaper, he throws his diaper in the TRASH not the recycling, opens the bathroom door, sits on the potty (just sits), then waits for someone to fill the bathtub. or i can tell him we're going to run some errands and that we need to get shoes and socks on. he first goes and finds a MATCHING pair of socks, we sit down and put them on. then he goes to find a pair of MATCHING shoes and so on and so forth. its "totally awesome!!!" (sorry, lots of yo gabba gabba lately.)<BR/><BR/>hey, I'm IMPRESSED!!!holly*https://www.blogger.com/profile/00887019014297987182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8868870647262186073.post-34001562031847655622008-03-24T19:53:00.000-06:002008-03-24T19:53:00.000-06:00Thanks for the compliments!
