dblhelix Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 AS Kip talks more and more, I have noticed every other day or so she latches on to a particular phrase and just repeats it like a chatter box. She already has down more than 20 words/phrases very well. The last two days its been: "Good Girl Kip" Before that it was: "I love you" Before that: "Gimme a kiss" and on and on...anyways, what is your baby's current phrase?? :lol:<br><br>Post edited by: dblhelix, at: 2007/07/06 17:33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richardsmommy Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Richard has been coughing all day the past couple of days. My husband has allergies and he can get into some pretty big coughing fits. It's so funny to hear Richard do all the hacking and coughing. He also said, "Come here, you Shoulder Rat" yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Monique Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Ours isn't talking yet. He's about six months. He does some gibberish and also I am a little surprised he still does some peep peep peeping baby talk as that usually stops by now in my experience ... and then he makes a sound that is annoying like the alarm clock on occasion! It's a happy sound for him means get up get up we're having fun today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 He will Monique, my Josey is a little over a year now and just started to talk some. I was afraid she was going to be one of the few that don't talk. It started out as jibberish then you can make out the words later, give him some time and you will be rewarded like I was. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lidia Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 At the moment: Would you like a cup of tea? Do you want to go to the loo? Are you ok? Is that good? Hello darling, want to come out. Sweetheart. Good boy. Cheeky boy. Monkey boy. Do you want some toast? Good night, sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite. See you in the morning. Don't...bite. Come and sit with me. Come over here. Do you want that? What? Absurd! Absurd bird! Quack quacky. Ticky ticky. Tickle. Chuckle. Quackle. First couple of bars of the Indiana Jones theme music. Typical. Typical telephone. Let go of my ear. Give me a kiss. Big kiss. Kiss kiss (smack!) Bang bang! Come over here and say that! And many many more I just can't remember. Oh, and when I get up and start putting the lights out, he says, "Is it goodnight?".

judygram Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 All this just shows Josey has a way to go to build a big vocabulary like the ones who have posted here on this thread. She says some words but not a lot yet, I keep hoping for more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richardsmommy Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Richard's are: Telephone ring Creaking door My laugh My husband's laugh "Hickory!" coughing sound Sexy Whistle (the tone that rises up/rises up and then down...there MUST be a name for this since it's so common) "Alright" "How are you?" "Come here" "OWWWWW!" "Hello, Richarrrd" "Come here, Richarrrd" Dog barking Dog growling "come here you shoulder rat!" Kimberly! "Stop it!" And he also shakes hands (zygodactyls?), Give me kissy-kissies He obeys commands: "put your head down" "Shake!" "Kissy-kissy!" "No!" "up-up!" "Come here!" "Let me have it" (comes to me and drops it in my hand) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lidia Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Noises: Telephones Car alarms Dog barking distantly (like down the street) Belching Nose blowing Sneezing Coughing Laughing like a maniac The sound of sawing Bird song (from birds outside) A creaky door Water running Water boiling (!!!!!) Water being poured My voice exactly to the point it spooks people Trucks backing up Clocks ticking (Actually, he says "tick tick tick BANG") Cat miaowing Kitten miaowing Wish I had all 18 years of Joshua's stuff on film. So many things have been forgotten, he has his current favourites.<br><br>Post edited by: Lidia, at: 2007/07/07 11:57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richardsmommy Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I keep track of Richard's on a notepad file. Here's a cool trick, folks: In Notepad, you can hit F5 to stamp the date and time. But, here's what's REALLY cool...open the new notepad file, type in ".LOG" (without quotes...BUT in all caps) and save. Next time and every time you open the file, it will automatically stamp the date and time. Try it. So, every time Richard learns a new word, I open the file and the date is already there. Richard learned to shake on his birthday. I wouldn't have remembered this without the notepad trick. I also use this trick after starting a new med to keep track of side effects, for memoires, prayer requests, phone messages I need to keep track of, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherStrella Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I forgot to add that sometimes she'll talk in a really quiet, sweet voice. In the morning when I go in and get her up, I talk really soft and say things like "good morning, how are you?"...well, she's started talking the way I do in the mornings. You can only hear her if you're next to her...it's so soft. She has also started singing phrases...and singing things I don't understand. It's so cute. This morning she said for the first time "good girl"...YAY!! She also makes the sound of the microwave beeps, dog barking, dog scratching the slider, kissing noises, laughing, coughing, farting, and burping...of course she didn't get those last two from me!!! :whistle: The way I've been keeping track of her phrases/words is, I put them in her online photo album...then when I want to post them somewhere, I just copy and paste. I just love this little grey parrot...I really can't imagine life without her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeatherStrella Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 I just have to share this... Yesterday I had a sneezing spell...it doesn't happen very often but when it does, I sneeze a lot. Well, after each sneeze, my husband said "bless you". This morning, Harrison made a sneezing sound and said a perfect "bless you"...she is constantly amazing me with what she says...unbelievable!! Now, if only I could get her to do it on command!!! Ha. She has also added these to her list: come out and play? pretty girl (something I don't understand)then she says the dog's name, Sandy... It's a good thing we don't curse!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 That's great! I love it when the phone rings, Talon always says, "Hello, okay, hold on....Matthew!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherStrella Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 That reminds me....when I'm ending a phone call I always say "alright, bye bye."...I really didn't realize I ALWAYS say that until Harrison started saying that in my voice...lol. It's amazing what you learn about yourself!! :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 It comes out more like jibberish to start out then it becomes more clear. It is amazing what they can pick up and say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherStrella Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I hope it's ok to bring up an old thread like this...I just wanted to post this... I was hanging out with Harrison and I was leaving the room and I said "I'll be right back" and she said "Hurry up!"...ha. She is just amazing.

Tricky Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Jack says... Hi cutie Hello? Buh-bye! I'm gonna sing the doom song! doom dodo doom... (invader zim :laugh: ) Jacko! Ow... Whatcha doin birdie? YARRR! Oh goodie goodie goodie! Wanna cracker? Used to say "Shiver me timbers!" but hasn't recently. He also used to be able to name animal sounds, like puppydog, kittycat, horse, duck... etc. but we all kind of forgot about them, so I'm trying to re-teach those. He mimics phone conversations he's heard from my dad: *ring*, hello this is charlie... yes... yes... okay... no... yes... okay... okay bye. It's not perfectly clear, but it's funny to hear. :laugh: He whistles the Andy Griffith theme song... when my mom taught him, she used to snap, and he actually tried to whistle and click at the same time when he practiced it, lol. Of course he wolf whistles, makes kissing noises... says "Kissie kissie" He says a bunch of things, but none seem to be his "favorite." But he does enjoy asking my mom if she wants a cracker. My sister's ex-boyfriend tried to teach him to say, "I taste like chicken!" ...I'm kind of glad he's forgotten that one. ^^; There are others, but I can't remember them all...
