I have been waiting for Porter to get on the talking train for quite some time. I know he understands what we say. It's a little frustrating to see and hear other kids his age talking away. I am not worried about his development AT ALL. He jabbers all day long and does say some words, and he understand almost everything we say and ask him to do. Most of his little friends who I see, and I'm talking about are little girls, who tend to advance a little faster than boys anyway. But I have still been waiting for it to kick in. My friend Mary said when Porter decides to talk it will be in sentences. This past week his communication has been growing tons. Before when we would try and teach him how to say something he wouldn't give us the time of day, it was almost like he was frustrated with us for trying to teach him. Now he will listen to us and will even attempt to say some things. But my friend Mary was kind of right! His new favorite thing to say is "Where is it?" not just a word, but a phrase! He holds his hands up (like I do when I ask him) and says "Where is it?" Don't get me wrong it is adorable when he says it, but his favorite time to say is it at night when he CHUCKS his binki out of his crib and we walk in and he says "Uh-Oh, where is it?" 
Last but not least......
SMILE!!
What a good big brother who loves to lay on his sister! (Catch the sarcasm please!)

That is funny, my family tells me that the day my parents brought me home from the hospital my brother jumped on me while I was laying on my parents bed. So it must be a boy thing to lay on their sisters.
I always thought it was too cute that Jack crosses his ankles when he sits in his high chair...now I know it's not just Jack, but Porter too!! I love it when we find things they have in common and I can't wait to get these cousins together :D Ellery smiling is TOO cute!
