Talking....It's in the Genes

Well, the boys survived while I was up in Denver for work. The house was still standing, Carter had his bath, the laundry was nearly done, and Matt finished washing up all of the dishes. Maybe I should go out of town more often?! :)

This post is about genes...as in, which genes have been passed on from Matt and I to Carter. You see, EVERY time someone looks at a photo of Carter, they all say that he looks like Matt. Looks like Matt...Matt...Matt...Matt... NEVER, does he look like me.

Well, we figured out which genes he DID get from me...the talkative genes! I came back to town on Saturday night and it appears while I was out, Carter decided that he should try his hand at "talking." And talking... And talking some more... Apparently, at 3 months old, there is a lot that needs to be said!

I mentioned previously that we've been having "conversations" with him to help out his language skills, and well, it appears that it's been working! Here's a short video from last night of our conversation about the weather. Sounds like he knew today was going to be cloudly with a little drizzle on the drive in to work. Where he gets his information is anyone's guess...

For your enjoyment, here's "Mr. Talkative" and his weather report:

If he starts rambling off the winning lottery numbers, I'll be keeping that to myself... Here's hoping everyone is enjoying their week!

  1. Aw, the talking is SO cute from your little guy! When they get older and actually start making demands... well, it's debatable!! And for the record, I still think Carter looks like Matt, but that can change, too :0)
