"What the heck!"

Reagan has been exploding in his ability to pronouce words correctly. He used to say "T" for any "K" or "C" sound, like tool for cool, tar for car, tookie for cookie, etc. He also could not say his "L" sound. He would substitute it with a "W" sound. Rylan's name was said, "Rywan" and he "woved" us. He would say the "D" sound instead of "G", like dood for good, dolf, for golf, or when he said garbage he would leave the "G" sound off all together. He would say, "arbage".

What is more exciting than hearing his speech clear up is to see the excitment on his animated face when he says something correct for the first time. He seems more surprized than anyone.

"MOM! What the heck!! I can say GAR-BAGE!" (Imagine him saying that with his head cocked forward, eyes wide circles, and mouth left open when he's done.)
