Chatty cathy

Maxwell is such a little chatty cathy these days.  He learns new words almost every day.  Some of my favorites lately…

Ky for Sky.  and he says this every time he sees or even just hears an airplane.

Sticky for anything that’s..well…sticky!

Mail Mail for mailman…and for any mailbox or white truck that he sees!

Bah for bye.  He says it to everyone and anyone that will listen whenever we leave anywhere.  Precious.

Juice..but it sounds more like joos.

Dee?  for this? When we read books, Maxwell just points at everything (mostly trucks) and says, “dee?” because he wants us to tell him what everything is.  Have I mentioned how good I am at identifying trucks now?  excavator, dump truck, backhoe loader…

No.  No is coming all. the. time.  Fortunately, I still find it ridiculously adorable when he shakes his little head and says “no” almost like a question.  Talk to me again in 2 months and I might have a different take on that!

Uh-oh.  We probably hear uh-oh more than any other sound.  Max drops a toy? Uh-oh. Maxwell throws a toy? Uh-oh. Maxwell’s juice cup leaks onto his tray? Uh-oh. Maxwell gets cracker on his shirt? Uh-oh.  Uh-oh all the time.

Ssshhhh.  Susan taught him to put his finger up to his lip and say “shhhh”.  This usually comes after tucking Nanner and Mr. Moo in for their nap in Maxwell’s crib.  The cuteness of his little 1 fingered ssshhh almost puts me over the edge.

He’s also got some pretty awesome new animal sounds – an elephant sound that kind of sounds like he’s spitting on himself and a cat meow that is a little more like “ow” but we get it.

But the best sound of all?  MaMa!!  except when it’s coming incessantly and accompanied by the never ending plea to be picked up of course.  🙂

Some funny pictures of my dude…

His chipmunk impersonation…

Being silly…

And my favorite…checkin’ himself OUT!

Man, I love that kid.  Bah!
