Random bits of Owen goodness

We’ve been teaching Owen how to cross the street for months (and months and months)—and we even do it on our little dead end street that barely gets any traffic. He hasn’t quite gotten it yet (which is good, since I’m not sure he’s ready to cross by himself, even if we do live on a fairly quiet cul de sac), but he knows more than he lets on (as I’m sure most toddlers do), since within the last day or so, he’s begun saying (in random places at random times, not just outside) “Car that way? [looks one direction] Nope. A car that way? [looks other direction] Nope. Car that way? [looks back other direction] Nope.” Lather, rinse, repeat. It’s hilarious.

Of course, each time I try to record him saying it, he stops. I finally got this video, which you can’t really make out very well, but hopefully you will get the idea. And then, you will also get to hear another new thing he’s just started doing—that godawful screeching. It sounds likes he’s saying SOMETHING…I just don’t know what it is. It almost sounds like a version of WATER but he generally says that more clearly, so I really don’t know. If you have your speakers up to hear the bit about the car, be warned you might blast your eardrums when it gets to the screeching. šŸ™‚
