Cat says mooo...

A & P are starting to repeat words like little parrots - ok, maybe like parrots after a few Mexican Martinis from Trudy's, but sounds coming from their mouths kind of sound like the words we say.  We're talking beyond mama, dada, ball, etc...

Both are fond of telling us what sounds various animals make - duck say "kack kack", cow (and sometimes cat) say "moo", dog says "oof oof", and cat say "mao". 

Andrew's favorite words include:
"un-da" which means "clean up" (as he tries to sing the clean up song)
"o-e-ya" which means "Olivia" (a cartoon pig & a little girl at school)

Parker's favorite works include:
"peeesss" as he pats his chest, attempting sign language for please (often pointing at the puzzles put up on the mantle)
"ba pak" for "back pack" (which he carries into school everyday)

They both understand far more than they can say, and it's only a matter of time before daddy will see the necessity of editing his humor. 



Lounging in our UT gear

 In other news, we tried on our Halloween costumes last night.  Andrew is a dog and Parker is a dragon (or dinosaur - there is a debate - you tell us what you think).  We also enjoyed lounging in our UT chairs this week...thanks to Grandma's friend, Dora.
