Understanding a 22 Month Old

Ahwawa - I Love You. He's nowhere near saying it right but since I know what he's trying to say I love to hear it.
Dinner - Doodoo
Lunch - Dunch
Breakfast - Bullshit. I don't know - it just comes out that way. (See the video!)
Gilk - Milk
Colcut - Chocolate
Juice - Chocolate Milk. You would think chocolate milk would be 'colcut gilk' but . . .  it's not. He says 'juice' and points to where the Nestle Quick is kept.
Wawas - Water
Bubob - Spongebob Square Pants
Mitme - Mickey Mouse
Hammy Mam - Handy Manny
Pompas - Thomas (as in the tank engine)
Tissue - This actually means tissue. But it sounds am awful lot like choo choo which means trains. If he's got boogers, he needs a tissue. Otherwise he wants to watch 'Pompas'.
Cook - He says this when he is cooking in his kitchen!
LoLo - This is what he calls his cousin, Logan. Nathan, btw, is NayNay. Nathan randomly asks for LoLo sometimes. It's adorable.
Lily - Lily is of course the other cousin. I think he really does know who Lily is but he also calls all other babies Lily, including little black babies.
Hammy - Hammer
Goggy - Doggy
Gunky - Monkey (I don't know what's up with the G's)
Baf - Bath
Teef - He wants to brush his teeth
Ticker - Sticker. What he gets when he brushes his teeth really well. This sticker thing works, btw. He actually lets me get in there and brush really well so he can pick out a 'goggy' sticker.
Wat Way - That way or This way. He likes to tell you where to go.
Moom - I think he can actually say 'moon' now but he used to say 'moom'. He is fascinated by it and looks for it every night.
Hands - He wants to wash his hands
Eyes - The sun is in his eyes
Deetz - Dance. He has a great little chicken-like dance.
Syak - Snack. He loves snacks. Especially colcut.

These are the words of Nathan at 22 months, among many others of course. Hard to imagine he will be saying lots more in full sentences very soon. He is so fun to watch. I love him!
