Look who's talking!

so sprout is becoming quite the little chatter box. in the past couple of weeks he has picked up a lot of new words- including my two favorites of his, bahpa (papa) and neehnah (nana).

here is a list of some of the things he is saying now:

eeeeees= cheese
peeeee= please
bubpy= puppy
eee-ow= (meow) cat
bish= fish
yie= hi
pee-ta= pizza
bah by= bye bye
raaaaaa= (roar) dinosaur
ooohoooh-ahhhahh= monkey
me= mine
mohna mohna= bean's doll 'ellie de mona' that is has taken for his own, by the way
nommy nommy= i'm hungry, food
booh= blue
blaah= block
nohwhay= no way
nuh-uh= no
yesh= yes
bee bee= baby
beh= bed
neena= peanut
bawh= ball
bleck= yuck
mooo= move
too too= choo choo
twee twee= bird
and of course dadhdy and mahmee!

and just a few minutes ago he said "deega"= digger and "dur"= dirt because we have a large digger across the street digging a hole.

he is just starting to repeat. bean is trying to get him to say polish (as in nail polish) and he is saying something remarkably like that. it is bean's new favorite game "sprout can you say...." repeat this over and over and OVER again.

he also named a stuffed animal all on his own. he now calls this small stuffed dog of mine "neena bubpy" or peanut puppy. why? i have no idea. but it sure sounds cute!

and he "reads" books. loudly. he sits there with the open books spouting a bunch of gibberish and flipping pages. so funny. i should get a video. :)

and he still has his own made up language that he uses to communicate things too. when he smacks his lips that means "i'm thirsty, i want a drink" when he makes a popping sound that means popcorn or "i want to blow bubbles" or "daddy i want to play the bubble wrap game on your cool new iphone". (seriously!) when he takes his fists and tucks them under his chin and makes wide eyes that means "i'm scared!"

it sure is a lot easier now that he starting to really be able to tell us what the heck he wants. i can't wait to hear what he comes up with next!
