Tinyest's language comprehension appears to have exploded. Still limited words back, but answers are starting to form. Last night I asked him if he wanted to get out of the bath. He shakes his head and says something similar to "nuh". I asked if he wants a bottle, he ponders for a second and goes "Yeh" and starts climbing out of the bath. Blew my mind. Didnt realize he was there yet.
"Are you ready for bed?"
Yeh... yeh nuh...
Pretty much! It’s rarely a yes to something we want it to be a yes to.
When Tinyest starts going through the 'NO!' stage, ask him if he wants a lolly .... This is guaranteed to traumatise him with his first taste of existential angst. An important part of growing up.
