"An Boo-AN!"
We have watched our Toy Story videos so often that Ro is now running around "And beyond!" all the time. Needless to say we're going to spend more time upstairs. But it really is cute!

Howdy!
Hey howdy hey! RoRo is in Tennessee! We arrived Wednesday night, and already he knows names (just ask my brother Brandon!) of lots of people-- and of course all the pets! Yesterday we took him walking along the creekbank, and I found a place where we could get down to the water, and he immediately started throwing rocks. Little boys must have a rock-throwing gene somewhere in them! With any luck, it will be nice enough to take him to the zoo tomorrow!

Won't You Be, Won't You Be, Please Won't You Be My Neighbor?
RoRo helps his Daddy take off his tie and shoes at the end of the day. Today Sujit has to stay late at work, and at about 6:00, Ro decided he wanted a pre-game scrimmage. We took down ties and put them back on the rack, went through Sujit's clothes deciding what were shirts and what were pants, and discussed where the shoes go. Now come home, Daddy, we're ready for you!
EEEEEasy Does It
Ro has started to put "eee"s on the end of his words. Wa-wa is sometimes "wa-wee," Ma-ma is sometimes "Ma-mee," but Da-da is still Da-da-da-da-da-DA!
Word/s of the Day
Prit-ty! (pretty)
Usage:
When Ro puts his Mardi Gras beads on something, it becomes prit-ty!
Ween-da (window)
Corl (squirrel)
Usage:
We watch the corls play in the yard through the ween-da.

A Verry Merry Un-Birthday!
Today is Ro's half-birthday! He's a year and a half already! I took him to the Union and he got to see his Dadda and drink a V-8, both of which he seemed to enjoy completely. He would catch the eye of any passerby and point to Sujit and say "Da-da!" because to him, that's the most inmportant thing in the whole SUB!
He's come such a long way, and I can start to see little glimpses of the little boy he's growing into. He's extremely observant, and will watch a new situation for a while before jumping in. He's always concerned when he sees another kid having a hard time, and he can spot another child anywhere. He takes very good care of everyone around him, including his doggies-- he reminds me when it's time to give them their chew-chews and has started clicking his tongue to get them to come to him. He especially takes care of his Daddy, helping him off with his tie and coat at the end of the day. He can even play jokes-- he likes to show me a toy, then run off and hide it under a blanket or behind the curtains and ask me "Where did it go?" He laughs really hard when I "finally" find it, or sometimes he goes ahead and shows me how clever he was with this little gleam in his eyes. And he has a spectacular memory-- he remembers where toys are from days before, he remembers people he's only met once or twice, and he can tell you what's going to happen next in his favorite movies and books.
On one hand, I'm sad that he's growing up so fast, but it's been so fun so far I can't help but be excited about the next few months! Years! Decades...? Wow.

Word of the Day
Today's word was...
Fish!
He's been saying that word (sort of) for a few months, but today he was trying to point out a book to me that had a fish on the cover, and I just wasn't getting it. "Fee, fee," he'd say, and I was guessing all kinds of "f" words. Finally he was still for a minute and said, "Fissshh! Fissshhh!" He said it all day, even when he's not thinking about fish.

Spring Fever
Yesterday was a fantastic day for Rohan! It was nearly 70 degrees in the afternoon, so I took him to Jaycee Park. He played for almost half-an-hour on the little slide-- he would only slide on his tummy at first, but after a while he felt brave enough to sit down. (Of course I had to demonstrate the technique first! Once he saw Mama slide down a couple of times he was willing to give it a try.) He also saw some young men playing basketball, and I had to stop him from running over to join their game a few times. "Boom boom boom!" he'd say, imitating dribbling a ball.
