Friday Fun: Baby Speak

The English language, according to Babycakes:

Orn deuce (orange juice)

Bite-min-min-min (vitamin)

Chains (trains)

Sagani (spaghetti)

Ooom poops (Fruit Loops)

Dappa deuce (apple juice)

Muppin (muffin)

Bankent and peewoe (blanket and pillow)

Coo-coos (Blues Clues)

Nemonee (lemonade)

Pekin (hanger-don't ask me why!)

Bee-wee-woe (video)

Seer-ra-roll (cereal)

Dipper (diaper)

Maining, mock, Manee' (raining, rock, our friend Renee'- she has trouble with the R sound)

Tuh-dubbies (Teletubbies - much to my dismay, she has developed quite a fixation with them lately)

Chippies (potato chips)

Mocka-mockos (The Wiggles - again, it's a great mystery why she calls them this)

Ass-a-sauce (applesauce - quite embarrassing in public)

Ma-ma-mons (M&Ms)

Madder (water)

Cup coppee (coffee - the kid loves coffee! She begs for a taste whenever I have some)

Faffle (waffle)

Cay-cake (pancake)

Dinsters (downstairs)

Tyra (tired)

Steekah! (sticker)

Gamite (goodnight)

See-oop (soup)

See-oos (shoes - the SH sound is a tough one)

Nunch (lunch)

Kins and peepah (crayons and paper)

Chi-chi cheese (macaroni and cheese)

Boak (book - when she was really little, if she wanted you to read to her she would say, "booka tickah, booka tickah." It was so cute!)


Some of her favorite expressions:

"NO!"

"Go way!"

*raspberry sound* and then "Poopie!" (her sister taught her this)

"Aside! Bikes!" (she wants to go outside and ride bikes)

"Hi Punkin, hi boy!"

"Baby kee-oot!" (baby cute)

"YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!"

"Sss Sss Cop (this means she's thirsty and wants a drink)

"Bee chuck!" (big truck)

"I siwwy!" (I'm silly)

"Mmmmmm, nissis" (delicious)

"Sissy, a BUNNY!" (she says this whenever she sees one of Bee's dance recital pictures)

"Yes, yes, Mommy."

"Thomas nosey!" (she means noisy-she always says this when we see a train)

"Uh oh Mommy! Satwipes o-bear!" (satellite over-she says this whenever we lose the satellite signal during bad weather)

"Bad pants again!" (when she needs her diaper changed)

"Kissee!" (can't see - she likes to walk around with a towel or shirt or something over her face, until she bangs into a wall or door. I know. She's an unusual child).

"Huggie niiice." (she's very generous with the hugs and kisses).

I'm glad that she can communicate so well. I can almost always figure out what she means, but when I can't, she gets MAD! I mean, kicking and screaming mad. If anyone is considering paying a visit to our home, I would suggest that you print this for reference. It's best to familiarize yourself with the language spoken here, to avoid unrest among the natives.

Wow! She is only 20 months and says all of that? That is incredible! What a smart little cookie!
My little one Emma says a lot, but I am not sure she has as many phrases as your little girl.
Loved that you wrote it out like she says it. too cute!

Ah Baby Speak! I LOVE that age!! Chandler was (and still is) a very verbal baby.
Riley, not so much. She babbles, but she's very happy pointing, grunting, and dragging us around the house by the finger to get what she wants. :)

Nancy said...

That's quite the vocabulary! Love this post - what a great way to remember all of the cute ways she says stuff. :)

MaE said...

Too cute!!! They grow up so fast I wish I would have written down my daughters cute words when she was a baby. What a nice memory for Baby Cakes!!!

Wow! Good language skills for her age! BB does the same thing with covering his face and running into things. The first few times he seemed confused about why it happened, but now he just thinks it is funny.

Renata said...

She sure is a sweetheart - & she sure is talking well! My boys don't have anywhere near that vocabulary, although some of her favourite phrases are the same as theirs!!

Saminda said...

This was really fun to read. :)
Babycakes sounds like a real cutie, and a bundle of laughs too!!

I need to do a list like this for what my Little Man says.

He has trouble with the R sound too.
