In the last week or so Nora's vocabulary has taken off. She is much more intelligible now which makes it easier to have conversations with her. Although we know what she is saying most of the time, someone listening to her off the street might be concerned.
For example, Nora loves to see the garbage truck arrive on Thursday mornings. She asks about when it is coming at least once a day and then answers her own question with: "No, not today, next morning." The worst part is that garbage truck comes out as "double f@%#." It wouldn't be that big of a deal, except for the fact that it is one of her favorite words at the moment and she says it in all settings :-0
The other words that can be misinterpreted are 'duck' and the sound it makes 'quack.' Duck sounds like the word that means levee and quack sounds like the word that starts with an 'f', ends like a 'g' and has an 'a' in the middle. Ooops!

Heh heh! When Gary was starting to talk, one of his favorite toys was his dump truck. When he said it, it came out "dumb f*@$" Also, he didn't say his "l" very well, (still doesn't) so one day we were at Target and he saw a huge clock. So Gary says "Hey mommy, wook at that big c--k!" How embarassing!! Ah, out of the mouths of babes.
