The grub has turned into a full-fledged little boy. He's still not talking other than a few words, but has demonstrated an uncanny ability to know what we're talking about. We tried the old trick of spelling things when we don't want him to understand, but he quickly learns to recognize the spellings. This has forced us to adopt different techniques of obfuscation, but when the kid learns pig Latin, we're doomed.
Goals for 2010 include talking and potty training.
