Spencer has gotten so big...well I should say smart. He gained 1 pound in 6 months, and wouldn't ever care to eat if I didn't make him. He's a big time mimic, so he's come up with quite the list of phrases.
My favorite right now is, "GO PEE." He's actually started potty training somewhat. It came about because of the dog. We live in my parents basement, and they have a toy poodle, named Sophie. Yep, she's still alive, 15 years strong. Her biggest fear right now is being left outside. So when we take her out to go to the bathroom, she walked a little, then stops and turns around to see if we shut the door. So we have to yell, "Go pee," then she walks a little further, turns around and checks again. It's a big ordeal, and we yell "go pee" like 20 times. Well, Spence has picked it up, so whenever anyone takes the dog out, he runs over and yells, "GO PEE" as loud as he can. It's hilarious. Spencer also thinks that watching Scott or I go to the bathroom is just the funniest thing ever, so we started getting him to say, "Go pee mom" or "Go pee dad." We then took it another step further. He loves running around naked. And he does this very distinct stance when hes about to pee. So whenever he does that, we run him into the bathroom, so he can go on the toilet. Which he actually does, and we say, "Go pee Spencer." He thinks it's great.
Spencer is also really into Spongebob Squarepants right now. Not only can he say it, he'll sing the song as well. I guess I've never paid attention to how much Spongebob memorabilia there is, because every 2 seconds while we are in a store, he's yelling, "Spongebob, Spongebob."
He also loves Mickey Mouse. If you've seen Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, the very end theme song is the Hot Dog Song, with the Hot Dog Dance. So every time he sees Mickey Mouse, he yells, "Hot Dog."
Other words or phrases: "All right" "See ya later" He says "HI" to everyone he sees, "Whoa" "WHEE" "All done" A lot of names....also incorporated into his phrases, "See ya later Lindsey" "No" to any question we ask, "Wonder Pets" "Elmo" "Pablo" " Hamie" or Handy Manny "Baby" "Yay" "Choo choo" "car", he also loves to tell you animal sounds. Right now he'll tell you what a dog, cat, sheep, cow, horse, and pig say. He also can count to 6. We've been working on counting through 10, he'll say 1-6 then 9.
