Long term memory...check!

Lately, Teagan has been very quiet when it comes to waking up in the morning. He typically yells for Mama or Daddy when he wakes up, but he battled croup last week and is still getting his full voice back. This morning, however, was a different story. When I walked into Teagan's room, I was greeted with shouts for Mama. When I informed him Mama went bye byes, he asked for Papa. Again, I had to break the news to Teagan. He didn't seem to mind, however, instead contemplated who he should ask for next. His response? D! D! D! D! For those of you who don't know, he calls his Aunt Danielle "D." Admittedly, D is easier to pronounce. He hasn't seen D since Christmas time so I was a little caught off guard. When I told him D went bye byes as well, he acted as if he were an airplane and made the sounds of what he perceives an airplane would make. This is a clear demonstration of a solid long-term memory because the day D left for Washington, we told him she was taking an airplane. I also took this as a sign that D needs to come home soon. :)
