What you say

Hey there, little man! Your vocabulary is growing! Here's what you've been saying, and what it means:

Woowwww, wowww: I just did something cool!

Daggun!: This is exciting!

Ahhh?: I want some of that.

Nuh-uh: No, I am not going to do what you asked me to do.

Burr: Bird

Bah: Ball

Booh: Book

All: Owl

Per: Peeper

At?: What's that?

Da-dirt!: I see a car!

Grrrrr, grrrr!: I see a truck!

Eeeooo, eeeooo: I see a cat!

AHHHEEEEEE!: Don't touch what I'm touching!

Uh-oh-oh: I dropped something, intentionally or otherwise.

Mom-mom-mom: Fix it.

Ha ha!: Ha ha!



You learn something new - or lots of somethings - every day. Right now you are playing and saying "Wow, oh wow, oh wow!" That's one of my favorite things to hear. You must have gotten it from Daddy or me, obviously. We have already started spelling words so we don't get your hopes up. You know what it means when we say "outside" or "walk". We're having a drought and a heat wave this summer, and it's been so very hot that we haven't been able to go outside much. As a result, Daddy and I spell those words.

My smart boy, you also know what I mean when I say "There's a big truck outside!" You race to the window to see it. You love big trucks! Construction equipment is even better. So it was very exciting for you when the water main blew at the corner of the street this week, and a giant front end loader was parked in front of our house. I took you outside and you touched it. It was a big moment in your week!

We're going to church today. Try no to be too vocal during services. Though I don't think anyone would mind hearing you say "Wowww, oh wowww, oh wowww!" It is completely adorable.

XOXOXO
