Interpretting the language...

What he says....                            ... and what he means
bite                                               "I'm hungry. Feed me, please."
quack                                           "Cracker, please"
hug                                               "Hug"
up                                                 "Up" or, quite possibly, "Down"
on                                                 "On" or "Off"
off                                                 "Off" or "On"
no                                                 "No" and sometimes "Yes"
bat                                                "Bath"
house                                            "I see my playhouse from the window. Can we go?"
tat                                                 "Cat" or "That"
rooooooar                                     I'm thinking about what a lion says.
deus                                              "Juice" or "Shoes"
tu-oy                                             "Toy"
sock                                              "Please put my sock on/off"
duck                                              "Truck" or "Duck"
book                                              "Book"
bah-lock                                         "Block"
nay-nay                                          "Mama, please help me go to sleep."

But the most beautiful things he says are with words that he can't express yet. Baby J hugs and kisses can brighten these gloomy days easily.

  1. He also says truCK (accent on the CK), which means truck or train. Ma Ma means Mee Maw which he says with glee, which makes this mee maw very happy. And yes, he does have wonderful hugs and kisses.

  2. He has delightfully added "frog" to his reportoire. I cannot post what it sounds like. But I will mention that he saw quite a few frogs at Target today, which had me continually correcting him so that there was no confusion.
