In addition to enjoying Natalie's budding language skills, we're also having fun with Konrad as he learns to speak. As I've mentioned before, Lukas spoke much better, much earlier than Konrad: we could tell Lukas how to say a word one time and he had it perfectly right away.
Konrad takes a little longer.
Lately he's been working on "pajamas." Tonight as I dressed him for bed, he proudly proclaimed, "ja-MA-MAS"! I corrected him with "pa-JA-mas" and he replied with "pa-MA-MAS". Then it went back to "ja-MA-MAS" and I decided I liked that word best of all so I started encouraging him to say it that way for Tom.
Ok, bad mommy. But it's cute. I'm also proud that he says, "goggy" for "doggy", which is exactly the word I said when I was a kid.

Aawwhh...but aren't our babies "personalised" vocabularies always the cutest (yes, I can just see the speechies shaking their heads and sighing "tsk tsk"). For some reason Meghan called Luke "Ba" until she was almost four, a horse was a "worse" (which seems much more difficult)and a tomato a "bomato"...I love Ja-ma-mas...much cuter than the actual word!!!!
