The Next Generation's Choir Director

Watch out Aunt Allison and Grandma D! Scott is ready to take over as the next Syphi Family choir director... When Baby Santa finishes, they play the Hallelujah Chorus during the credits. Scott has to stop whatever he is doing, look at the TV and bounce his hand to the beat. And be sure to watch his grand finale:

Scott's Impressive Dance Skills

Scott spent forever today just standing at the refrigerator, playing the song each of the letters in sequence and doing this silly little dance. He was so entertained!

Baby C and Baby L (Elle)

We had a lot of fun with Jeff, Kelly, Elle, Cindy & Ryan all here visiting the last few days. Aunt Kelly taught Scott to say "Baby Elle", which is really easy since he has his letters down cold. Scott was driving in the Pilot with Jeff and Kelly and just kept saying over and over, "Baby L, Baby L..." And now that his fun aunts and uncles and cousin are gone, if we mention Baby L, he becomes very sad.

And since Baby L is such a great name, Scott also decided "Baby C" would also be appropriate for his little sister. And he thinks it is hilarious if ask if her name is Baby A or Baby C or Baby X... You get the idea!

The Infamous Bwoo Square

I can't figure it out... Scott has this MAJOR obsession with blue squares. No, wait... BWOO squares. Just watch the video and you will see:

We have the old quiet book that Mom made for us as kids, and on one page there are a bunch of felt shapes. For some reason Scott LOVES the blue square. He can't sleep without it. The other day he had to take it into Safeway with him and when we got back to the car, he didn't have it. So I had to haul him back into the store to find the bwoo square on the floor in the check-out line. And when we play this computer game that shows a bunch of different shapes and colors, once the bwoo square appears, it is the absolute greatest thing in Scott's little world

Scott is Going to be Two!

If we can count letters and numbers as "words" in Scott's vocabulary, it would be HUGE! He is very excited to respond when we ask him, "How old are you going to be?" Check out his answer:

Scott's First Words

We have waited a long time for this moment... Scott is finally talking! Check out his first words and his sweet hairdo:

The 'D' Says...

I have never known a little kid to be SO into letters! Yes, he isn't saying any real words yet, but Scott knows all his ABC's, upper and lower case, the sounds they make AND the sign! Amazing... He can say most of the letters, but for some reason he doesn't like 'A'. He just starts off with an 'M' sound, then continues on with 'B, C, D..."

Speaking of the letter 'B', that is by far his favorite. He runs around doing the sign with his hand and yelling 'B!!!' like it is the most exciting thing in the world. The other day we went into Best Buy and he was SO pumped that there were not one, but TWO huge yellow 'B's on the sign. And for some other strange reason, the letter 'D' is hilarious. I'm not sure why, but just check out this video:
