Making up words

He's been doing it for months but I only just put 2 and 2 together; pointing and saying "yay" is Mikey for "I want that."

Re: Making up words

  • Yay!

    Margaux has started making up signs.  It's kind of fun trying to figure out what she means, but I wish she'd use her mouth!

  • It is fun. Mikey has a ton of mysterious words that DH and I have been trying to figure out. He'll point and say a made up word, if he has one, the actual word, if he knows it, and 'yay' if he has no idea.
  • Charlie does that, too.  We kinda figured out that he says "I do that" a lot when he wants to do something himself, which is EVERYTHING.   At first, we didn't understand what he was saying---I ooo at.     He's saying new things every day, so it's been interesting around here.

  • Ada calls necklaces Isamba. It took me weeks to realize she was saying "Its Amber's". My friend Amber wears amazing necklaces and Ada has always been fascinated.
