Charles had a lot of fun at the dinner table tonight. Corwin let out a loud burp (which he tried to cover by saying “excuse me” afterwards, but it was clearly loud by design). Charles thought it was funny. We then discussed Corwin having a bath, which also amused Charles. He started saying “bath!” over and over, giggling to himself immediately after saying it (as if it were daring and rebellious to say). Eventually he started feeling his tongue because what seemed to amuse him most about “bath!” was the way his tongue stuck out at the end of the word. It’s a lot better than other words he will probably experiment later on.
After a bit, Corwin started trying other words to see if these would amuse Charles. He tried “crash” and “bash” and eventually words like “ravenous”. Charles found most of them quite funny. Eventually, as Corwin was starting his bath, Charles was standing nearby, literally bouncing up and down on his tippy-toes shouting out various words. It’s all so new and exciting at that age.
