A Graham Summer 
At 21+ months, Graham is a BUSY guy. His work these days consists of throwing rocks, loading rocks into trucks, driving trucks, digging, fixing, pounding, testing out new sticks, watching for trains, tractors, and trucks, chasing wildlife, harassing bugs, and discovering that anything can be a truck if you want it to. He's often too busy to eat these days, and much prefers on the go snacks and yogurt drinks. We usually discover and new scratch, bump, or bruise during bath time that he acquired while out on his adventures of the day.
He can and will imitate any machine or animal noise, and is slowly untwisting his tongue to spit out a few more recognizable words. His favorites are "uh oh" "mom" (which means "Mom" "Dad" or "Milk"), "Bob" (which means "Bob" our next door neighbor, facilities manager of the camp, or it means "truck" or "tractor" - Bob is usually driving one when we see him), "boo" ("cow"), and "meow" (definitely "cat" and any other previously unidentified animal). Graham also has picked up a few signs - he will sign for "drink" "please" (usually when he wants a snack) "thank you" (only when prompted, of course) "I love you" and his newest one is "dad".
If he's not playing trucks, Graham still loves his Sesame Street, particularly "Elmo." He loves to clean - washing walls and dusting. He can't seem to stay away from water anywhere it might be found. And he still LOVES books. We go to the library often for Toddler Play and new books.
