"Mommy, I pooped"

I've been working on this for what seems like forever, telling Cooper that he needs to tell me when he's pooped....well, today it happened! I came into the family room and he looked at me and said, "Mommy, I pooped, mommy, I pooped" (he likes to say things more than once) I, of course, praised him and changed his diaper. He then said, "More juice please"....please is another thing we've been working on teaching him to say when he asks for something, usually I have to prompt him. Cooper's been talking up a storm lately and Nicole, his speech , has moved from working on expressive language to articulation. Nicole said she rarely sees a child explode so quickly with language. Coop has an evaluation today at Child Find to see if he will qualify for speech therapy after he turns 3....Nicole doesn't think he will and that is a good thing. I'll keep you posted.
