More things he says...

Instead of asking me to hold him he says "I hold Mama".

When he tells a story he says "buu-uuut" a lot in between sentences.

He says his full name is "Zechy-Riah"

Today he called me out on needing a manicure-"Ohhh noooo mama! Mama nails are all mussed up! What happen mama?!"

When he likes a food he's eating he'll say-"Mmmm dis stuff is goooood!"

When I tell him he can't have something he will say "Just a baby one...a liddle bit?"


He calls a sandwich a "sammich"

He is strangely obsessed with the number 17... he likes to randomly say "17?"


He calls strawberries "strawbears"...

...and vitamins are "vites".


He gets on these kicks where if Nathanael will go to do something for him he'll freak out and say "NOOOO! MAMA DO IT!" and vice versa. Just depends on which way the wind blows that day.


He's replaced "uh oh" with "Maaaaamaaaaa some-tings wrong".

When he gets hurt he'll say "I got an owie...Riah needs ice keam!"

And candy is "cannie".

The other day while driving he said "Hey mama dada look at me" and when we turned around he had placed stickers all over his face. Little comedian :).

He likes to build stuff and bring us over to see it. When presenting his masterpieces he always exclaims "TA DAAAAA!" with his little arms sprawled out to showcase it.

And so while speaking to my collegue or client I fight off the urge to say things like "Let's have a sammich" and while eating lunch out refraining from shouting "Mmmm dis stuff is goood!"

I surely will miss these days when he finally masters the English language....but I have a feeling he will always be my silly boy. Surely senses of humor are genetic cuz this baby was born with one off the bat it seems! :)


Gotta love him!
