What’s The Word
AJ’s language has developed a lot this weekend. He has started trying to say almost everything I say. Most of them are completely wrong and the average person would have no idea what he’s trying to communicate. But we’re getting a kick out of it.
A few highlights from the weekend are:
Aaap! uhh- (apple)
Aight! – (light)
Teet- (teeth)
Maaaaaa – (more)
Beeeee! – (Zee)
Shiz – (shoes)
Sahts – (socks)
Up! – (up!)
Whoa – (hello)(complete with holding whatever is in his hand to his ear).
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma – (Mama, pick me up now!!! What is taking you so long?!)
Our very favorite is this one: We say- “What does a lion say?” and he says -”Oaaarrr!” (in a very deep throat growl sort of way). However, we receive the same response for “What does a bird say?” and “What does mommy say?” Apparently its the phrase itself that cues the Roar, not the Lion.
