Nolie’s on his way to having full-blown conversations with Syd, stringing more and more words together. Especially words that he learns from his big sis, like “not yours,” which he figured out to link with “mine,” of course!
We love how descriptive he is these days too. “I dropped it!” when he dropped his fork in the middle of lunch. “I can’t reach,” lamenting his inability to place his plate on the counter right now.
As much as we love and are excited about his increasing verbal independence, I have really, really loved his babbling and incoherent sounds all this time. Knowing that he’s my last baby, I’m treasuring all the baby things so much more the second time around. With that said, I want to note his cute Nolie’isms before I forget any more of them.
– Hard “c” sounds like “d,” so car = dar, scary = sdary, and cup = dup
– Water = wa-wa; dog = dah-dah
– S is followed by h, so Sydney = Shydney; Snoopy = Shnoopy
