exploding vocabulary

Little Roo just recently turned 21 months and, boy, is his vocabulary expanding! He loves to get right in your face and say "hi mommy." I watched Nana's (my mom) heart melt last time we were in Atlanta when he said "Hi Nana".

Just yesterday, he said "howdy" to Derrick. For those of you who aren't familiar with Texas A&M traditions, that's what you say when you are on campus. "Howdy Ag" is the preferred way of greeting people. We have no idea where he learned to say "howdy", but it was so funny to hear it come out of his mouth. Now Derrick has taken it upon himself to teach him every Aggie phrase - "Howdy Ag", "Gig 'Em Ag", and occasionally he'll throw in a "go Tarheels" just to make me happy. I think Scooter has the right idea when he says "Howdy Dawgs." After all, that's all we'll be able to afford!
