I had started writing this a while back because I thought it would be fun to share and to look back on. Everyday we learn a new word. Sometimes they stick and sometimes they are just there for a day. But I love hearing each new word.
As I was writing this up though I considered not posting it and just hit save not post. Then I came across this little post and I thought you know I should share this.
Zane’s Top Ten Words:
1. “Nigh-NIgh” (Night Night) - Good Night or I want to go to bed.
2. “Oosh” (Shoes) – Look at my shoes.
3. “DaDa” – Mommy or Daddy.
4. “Uice” (Juice) – I want milk, water or juice.
5. “Ease” (Please) – Please, I want that.
6. “BooBoo” (Animal) – Look an animal or look it’s Morgil. (Our bunny is named Boo Boo)
7. “Itty” (Pretty) – Isn’t this pretty.
8. “H-ot Da” (Hot Dog) – I want a hot dog.
9. “Ju-dah” (Judah) – My lovey.
10. “Ca” or “Cruck” (Car or Truck) – Both mean the same thing, anything with wheels.
I LOVE this! Especially the way you recorded his unique pronunciations!
Interesting the gender differences – “doll” was one of Esme’s first words, but she’s said nothing like car or truck. She does love “bahs” (balls), though.

Zane’s real first words were “this” and “that”. He would point at something and say “this” meaning he wanted it.
And I find the gender differences interesting also. The first time he saw a toy car he picked it up and went “RRRR” pushing it along.
