The things you say

At Adam’s checkup earlier this week the doctor asked me how many words he says. I honestly had no idea, but guessed “at least fifteen”. When I got home I started a list. This is what I’ve come up with so far:

  1. Mama
  2. Mom Mom (Grandma)
  3. Dah Dee (Daddy)
  4. Hat
  5. Shoos (Shoes)
  6. Bye Bye
  7. PLEEEE (Please)
  8. Wah wah (Water)
  9. Stay CEE (Stacy)
  10. Rob
  11. Papa
  12. Grandpa (close to how he says “Papa” but different)
  13. Uh Oh
  14. Oh No
  15. Nigh Nigh (Night Night)
  16. Hi
  17. DINE SAUR(dinosaur – always said in a growling voice)
  18. Chee! (Cheese)
  19. Na nas (Bananas – this does not refer to the fruit, but rather “going bananas”)
  20. I-no-no (I don’t know – said as one big word and normally accompanied by him putting his hands palms up and shrugging)
  21. George
  22. Eyes
  23. Choo choo
  24. Ba ba (Belly/button – they are interchangeable to him)
  25. Ah-num (Adam)
  26. No no no
  27. Bah (Ball)
  28. Bah Bee (Baby)
  29. Dat da (Doggy – this was his first word)
  30. Ah no (Thank you – not sure how this translates, but it’s his version)

A little more than 15 – and I am sure I’m missing a couple.
