He Speaks!

Over the past six months or so, Alex has been learning words.  It started out slowly (Mama, Dadda, Outside, Bird, Tree), but now it's progressing at a furious pace.

Here are the ones we could think of this morning.  I started to organize them, but then kinda gave up.  This may also be helpful as an interpretation guide for those who will be interacting with him over the holidays.
