Cave Man Drew

Drew is putting lots of words together now.  This is not to say though that he is speaking in sentences like my other children did at a much younger age.  He talks like a cave man.

"Put baby down.  Hold me."
"Me do it."
"Dew Dew, take me."  (Translation, "Take me with you.")
"Here Ite!  Help."  (Ite is Isaac.)
"Mornin' Dudah"  (Translation "Good morning Judah")
"No Hannah.  Mom do it."
"Me have it please?"
"Thursday.  Dandy.  Eat.  Me."  This is followed by a big open mouth.  (Translation "It's Thursday, I want to eat candy.")  Further explanation for this one is that we have dessert days, Sunday and Thursday, every week.  Those are the only days we have dessert barring some special occasion.  The kids are constantly reminding me what day it is when it is dessert day.  He has caught on to what days are dessert days and now just declares when it is Thursday or Sunday.

He gets the point across.  We all especially love when he uses made up signs to help us if we don't understand a word or something for some reason.

He says t's in place of k's.  So it is "montey" instead of "monkey" and "Bater" instead of "Baker" (his godparents' name.)  He also says d's instead of g's and j's, like "Denna" instead of "Genna" and "Dudah" instead of "Judah."
