My Words

Here is a list of B-man's words so far:

• Hi
• Bye
• Da = yes
• Boo Coo = Blues Clues (yes, we watch every morning at 7am)
• Gog = Dog or any animal for that matter!
• Gaku = Tucker
• Dada or Daddy = daddy
• Arf = Ruff Ruff
• Gack Gack = Quack Quack
• na na na = no (while shaking his head) - this is a newer word
• Up
• Out (kinda - this is a newer word)
• Dat = That

He can sign (I was gung ho about signing, but little B never really did it, so while I still do signs, he pretty much only signs more):

• More
• Pointing of course too! (we love to find airplanes in the sky!)

He will mimic lots of words such as (and I seperate these b/c he will only say them after we say them!):

• Cous Cous = cous cous, yes the food!
• Peas = please
• Tank ooh = Thank You
• Trapper (dog at daycare)
• Weeeee (as in Wee, this is fun!)
• Cookie
• Cracker
• Jus Jus = Juice

I think there are a few others, but this is what I am thinking as of right now. If only I could get him to say Momma or Mommy.....someday!

(I am somewhat paranoid as our dr is hoping his vocab increases lots in the next month or two........)

Lil B also is really good at comprehension and following directions:

• Will pick up things, "B, can you help mom pick up the diapers you just threw everywhere?"
• Will go to a room, "Let's go to your room and find your shoes"
• Food/Drink, "Let's go to the kitchen and get a snack" (he always runs to the pantry)
• Who's on the phone (to which he will hold it up to his ear and say HI or BYE)
• Let's pick out a book
• etc...

It is fun to see the little wheels turning in his head at this age! We spent about an hour and a half outside last night before daddy got home and just played. Picked up rocks, dirt, explored the new sidewalks in our neighborhood, pushed around the car, dug with a shovel, even picked up dog poop (YUCK!). So much learning going on!
