Vocabularly Update

All of a sudden new words are coming out of Max's mouth each day it seems. Towards the tail end of our vacation two weeks ago, Max learned several new words:
  1. Mama: Mommy. It's about time already! He finally can call his mommy when he wants her. The downside is that I now know how Meri felt all these months as he cried for Ed, Ed, Ed. The upside is that sometimes when his diaper needs to be changed, he calls for Mama and I get out of the dirty work!
  2. Wawa: Water. As in, I see a water bottle, can you please let me play with it now?
  3. Cocoa:The other dog. Cocoa is the name of dog that lives next door to G/G Rob and Clare. Thankfully he learned how to say mama before he learned to say yet another dog's name.
  4. Yeah: Somewhat obvious.
  5. Nieeeoooooo: No. While this is hard to type, Max has an interesting pronunciation of the word "no". It's hard to describe, but it certainly is unique. Unfortunately, sometimes no means yes and he gets confused.
  6. Emlo: Elmo. It comes out a bit wrong, but it's clearly Elmo.
We're certainly making some progress!
