Words!! (100 for now)


Elayna talks… a lot. Sometimes we could swear that she is speaking in Japanese, and other times it’s a language all her own. She does, however, know quite a lot of words now, too. When I am home alone with her I often feel like I know a lot of what she is saying to me. This word explosion is so exciting!! I started jotting them down here and have hit 100 already! I will keep adding them as I think of them.


Here are the words that she says well enough for anyone to understand…

Mama/ Mom
Dada/ Dad/ Daddy
Baby
Mi-mi
Nana
Papa
Hi
Bye
Uh Oh
Feet
Sock
Shoes
Bite
Teeth
Star
Ball
No ( she has, as of yet, only said this once or twice ๐Ÿ˜‰ )
Knee
Eyes
Toe
Oh!
See you
Bear
Cheese
Banana (nanana)
Chair
Ya
Show
Bee
Whee!
Whoa
E-I-E-I-O (she sings this a LOT)
Ah-choo!
Uh-uh
Pee-Pee

And here are the ones she says well enough for me or Jake to understand, but only sometimes clearly. ๐Ÿ™‚

Elmo (“El”)
Red (“reee”)
Yellow (“yow”)
Blue (“boo”)

She identifies animals by sound… so:

Horse = Neigh
Cow = Moooo
Sheep = Baaa (although she somtimes says “shee” for sheep too)
Kitty Cat = Meow
Puppy Dog = Arf Arf
Snake = Sssss
Elephant = trumpeting noise
Monkey = Oh oh
Duck = Quack Quack
Chicken = Bok Bok

What a smart girl we have!! ๐Ÿ™‚
