So, in honor of 5 months home we thought we'd post 5 new things about Jae-min:
1. He's now saying Mama and Dada, music to our ears!!! He also uses word approximations for ball (ba), book (bo), bird (bir) and balloon (baoo) and he's trying Martin (Mabroer) which translates to Martin brother. If you know him well you can decipher between all these b words and if not he'll just keep repeating them until you figure it out.
2. He's understanding more directiions to get ball and trucks, He's also able to look for mom, dad, and Martin when asked.
3. He and Martin totally crack us up everyday together. They now actually play together, Jae-min getting him a toy and Marty running down the hall to fetch it. Jae-min then squeals in delight as Marty runs back toward him down the hall dropping the toy in front of Jae-min. This could go on for hours, or until Marty gets tired!!!
4. His play has changed from just shaking and banging to actually playing with trucks and all of his toys in a different manner.
5. He is so lovable and friendly, always waving to others in church, at the beach, at the canal. He has this little Mr. America wave that totally captures everyones hearts as he makes eye contact with you and waves. He's just alittle cuddle bug and loves cuddles, tickles, and smooches.
