Oh... No!

Last night my dad was asking what new words Greyson has. We ran down the list of new and impressive pronunciations, including the adorable say he says lizard - my current favorite.

Later I realized the word he's been using the most lately is... NO! It's a little whiny, but soooo cute. And it's actually helpful in knowing what he does not want to do. But I'm sure it's just a hint of the battles and tantrums to come.

No has always been natural for Greyson. He has been shaking his head no for many many months. Probably since he started eating solid foods. That has been his indication that he's had enough or he doesn't like something, a simple shake of the head. I think it's funny because this is the exact opposite of little Veronica. She's a nodder. For as long as G has been shaking his head no, she's been nodding her approval. Seems to say something about their personalities, eh? I have been coaching Greyson on saying yes and nodding, but he hasn't mastered it yet. I have helped him to nod a few times, but it's a confused, circular nod. You can tell it's just not natural for him.

I'll have to get a good video of Grey saying "no" this weekend, it'll melt your little heart.
