Crazy Coconut is at It Again!

Jo Jo has started saying more words:
-He calls me "daw" or "da" which is also what he calls B. He used to call me mom or mama when he was really upset, but not anymore.

-He also says "ow" when he gets hurt, which is also the word for "out."

-He has always used the word "bop" for pacifier, which is the term we have used since JP. When JP was a baby, one afternoon when he woke up from a nap, he pointed to his pacifier on the floor and said "bop," so we have called it that ever since. I have always hated the word "binky."

-Another favorite is "mmm" when he wants food. That one's pretty cute since that's what we say when we're trying to get him to eat.

-Everything else has pretty much been "uh." Which can be hard to interpret unless he's pointing at the same time.

It's funny because sometimes he'll ask B for something and I'll translate because he doesn't quite speak Jo Jo yet. I'm seriously getting sick of having to push all the kitchen chairs around the kitchen so that he won't climb on the table. Because heaven forbid they should be close enough for him to push them over there. We also have to move the computer chair away and put the mouse up or he'll start clicking away. The other night, the computer chair was pushed in still, but the mouse was put up. He climbed in the chair, got the mouse down and started clicking away. Sometimes I think he's too smart for his own good. He also likes to hang on the oven doors now. Hopefully he will stop this before he gets heavy enough to actually open them. We're also just waiting for the day we have to take him to the ER. He likes to jump from the ottoman to the couch and even started to hang over the back to where his body is lifted off the couch. This is NOT good since we have tile behind that couch. B did slap his hand when he did it the last and took him off the couch, and I think it got through because he hasn't done it again. So as you can see, if we weren't already done having kids, he would be very good birth control.
