Vocabulary

At 18-months James has a growing vocabulary and it's crazy to hear him say somethings, whether in context or out of the blue.  We thought we'd attempt to capture in a list some of his growing language so we can look back and laugh at the things he used to say things.

• Wa-wa (water)
• Bubble
• Car
• Tru-ka (truck)
• Uppy (up)
• Book
• Hun-gee (hungry)
• Pah-ta (pasta)
• Coo-kah (cookie)
• Choo Choo (train)
• Bus
• Tune (music)
• Hi
• Buh bye (bye bye)
• Pease (please)
• N-ow (imagine exhaling through your nose and then saying "no" - that's snow)
• Oh no! (specifically in relation to the Packers Superbowl win - sorry Liza and Aimee :) )
• Tut-down (touchdown)
• Me-owww (his word when he sees a picture of a cat)
• Elmo!
• Puppa (puppy/dog)
• Pupul (purple)
• Milk (he's a pro at signing this one)
• Mo (more!)
• Moo (his word when he sees a picture of a cow)
• B-air (bear)
• Owies
• Have a nice day! (hab a nipe day!)

James is also learning the names of his classmates at school and can say many of their names fairly well on recognition.

Mom and Dada (or Pappa as he likes to call him) continue of course... and his favorite word as of late, No! :)

I'm sure this list will continue to grow at rapid speed.  It's fun that he is starting to communicate to us with words.  It's true that kids say the darndest things ... and I'm sure we'll find ourselves saying the darndest things as well as we continue to watch James grow and explore his world!
