Human Sponge

Porter is our human sponge.  We are realizing more and more that he picks up on everything.  Things we taught him over the past two years are all coming out of his mouth.  It's quite amazing.  For so many months he loved to have me sing "Latter-Day Prophets" while pointing out all the prophets in the gospel art book. Well yesterday he sang me the whole song...that's pretty hard.  David doesn't even know it.  I was in awe.  That's a lot of names to remember.

We also rearranged some pictures in our house.  There was a large picture of an Asian woman that we moved.  He was not happy about the move.  He told me, "Don't like it."  Then while pointing to the old hanging space he said, "This one."  He has quite the opinion.  We also moved another picture of some temples in the office.  When he walked into the office he noticed it.  I asked him if he liked the new place.  He said, "Yes."  

Later I caught him hanging up pictures.

These pictures were old pictures of David and I.  Porter had a few comments while looking at the pictures.

Porter saw a picture of me from before we got married and he said "no way" that was not me, it was a "new one". Then he saw two different pictures of David I and he said "same, matches".

If Porter has the option between two things are getting one out of a bunch of the same thing he can often been found saying "Both" while folding his arms across his chest.  I caught him in the act when he was telling me he wanted the whole bag of fun fruits, not just one.

 

This little guy wanted to sing all the verses to "Book of Mormon Stories" and hold up or point to the cards with the corresponding people. I'm sure he'll be singing this song soon:).

Maybe Jonas will pick them up too even though he was drifting off to dreamland.
