Lilah is at the stage in her language development when her babbling is starting to sound more and more like actual actual words and phrases in an actual language (this is what we fancy-pants speechies refer to as "jargon"). The Hubs and I are constantly doing a doubletake these days and asking her, "Did you just say...?"
In addition to the handful of real words she says (like "hi," "mama," "dada," "more," and "bubble"), here are a few of the things we could swear she's come out with in the past week or so:
"I'm outtie."
"Goitergoitergoitergoitergoiter."
"Mind yer biznaz."
"Oooooooh. Big bad bog buggy!"
"Zookeeper?"
"Duuuuude. Totally badass."
She hasn't yet ventured an attempt at "unbesmirched," but I'm sure it's on the tip of her tongue!
Does someone have a goiter???
ReplyDeleteShe is clearly one super-hip little babbler. Full of the jargon the cool kids use, and all that.
ReplyDeleteSadly, my own little babbler prefers to stick to a few favourite words. Like 'boat'. Which he says whenever he sees a truck. Sigh.
WOW Lilah is quite the badass, isn't she?
