Baby Latin

A few days ago Cathy and Hannah were coloring. Cathy was making a Jack-o'-lantern, and told Hannah it was a "pumpkin" (actually, at the time Cathy hadn't added the face yet, so what she said was true). Hannah turned to me and said, "Mama is cah-yay a punkin." It was a good example of how she's starting to make fairly long sentences now at 22 months! (Plus, it was TOTALLY CUTE!!)

If you didn't figure it out, by the way, "cah-yay" is about as close to "color" as Hannah gets right now. I think it's binky-in-mouth syndrome; ending "R"'s turn into "yay". Another good example of her binky-in-mouth baby-Latin: "Wah-yay" (what falls from the sky when it rains).
