Cade Speak

Remember when I was afraid because Cade wasn't really talking?

It was an unnecessary worry. Of course, not all of his words are understandable. But, they sure are cute. Here are a few examples:

• "Simmin" is swimming
• "Oc-pus" is octopus
• "Ja-ma" is Grandma
• "Jam-pa" is Grandpa
• "Chock-it" is chocolate.
• "Bonkey" is the monkey blanket
• "Munch" is lunch...or dinner...or whenever he wants to eat.

Cade is even putting words together. We are not forming complex sentences, but still...

• "My turn" (amazingly it is ALWAYS Cade's turn)
• "I wan sum" (meaning give me whatever you have)
• "I drop it" (meaning I threw it on the floor)
• "I fall" (accidentally or on purpose)

Some of his favorite shows:

• "Hot Dog" is the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
• "Ill Bear" is Little Bear
• "Bops" is the Doodlebops
• "Fish" is Finding Nemo
• "Pops" is Pop Goes the Wiggles
• "Tots" is Top of the Tots (Wiggles)
• "Boat" is Big Red Boat (Wiggles)
• "Baby" is Praise Baby

There. now, you should be able to decipher some of what Cade says. The important things anyway!
