He never stops talking! Oh my goodness. I used to be so worried he was delayed but now that he's talking - he never stops. It's exhausting sometimes, hearing "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy..." all day long or "watch me", "what's this name?", "is that funny?" or "I want to do it by myself" Aaah.
I relish the hours between 8 PM (bedtime) and 7AM. The house is quiet, and my brain can rest. I'm usually so mentally depleted by that time. Come the morning however, the eyes and the mouth literally open together at the same time. Yes he has speech problems and I'm usually the only one that understands him but he speaks, a lot, and he needs to be listened to and responded to and right now, I'm tired.

I know it can be exhausting when you're exposed to it 24/7, but this post totally reminds me why I love being around toddlers. When was the last time an adult asked "Is that funny?" without a trace of irony. Hahaha. Classic.
I hope I have the same problem soon :) Not to diminish how annoying it must be. I swear, some of my mom's piano students never grew out of that. Once I tried just never responding with words to this one kid who NEVER STOPS TALKING--it didn't help. He talked to me for the whole 30 minutes of his sister's lesson.
Well...it's understandable that you get wiped out since you have extenuating circumstances. It probably wouldn't tire you as much if you weren't building a brother! LOL. Well...at least I hope you can laugh. LOVE YA.
PS: You may as well get used to it because once they yak, they never go back!
He is so adorable, and he likes to talk, which is great for boy!")
I had to read this blog to my hubby outloud, because he kept asking me what I was giggling at. I just find this so funny, because I am at the stage you were in when you were worried about LL. I know that I will be in this position soon, and at this point in my life, I am giddy about it, but I know I shouldn't be LOL! I love your blogs. I want to hear him talk. Can you do a video soon?
