He has expanded his vocabulary he also uses sign language to tell you what he want.  He can sign.  Brush teeth, water, more & eat. :) + more

He says bubble and cracker at least a dozen times a day! :) He really loves to go in the back yard and splash around in his little pool and use bubbles all day.
