Baby Talk

Not counting choppy english and pig latin, I have only ever spoken one language and that is English. I'm beginning to feel like baby talk should be considered a language of it's own. I say this for several reasons. First of all, the immediate family is the only group that can truly understand it. Second of all, it is communication in it's purest form. Lastly, it's way more entertaining that standard english. For instance, when Cooper says, "Wanna watch Barney and the WooWoo on the WeeWee pwayer, what would you think that meant? For those who don't know him, that translates to,"Mommy, could you please place Lets go to the Fire Station in the DVD player for me to watch." That is one of the easier translations that I have come across. Below are some other helpful vocabulary words when communicating with my son:

PV - TV
WooWoo - Fire truck or police car
BiteBites - lunch, dinner, or breakfast (depending on time of day)
Snackanajuice - What he must have after getting dressed in the morning before going to daycare
Dergomama - His response when I finally get what he is talking about
Underdacubbaz - In the bed with mommy and daddy when he is trying to avoid going to bed
Pungbob - Sponge Bob Square Pants
Cocktoons - Cartoons
Kuga - Color with crayons or markers

"Hey mankey, cose ya eyes, get unda da cobas" Translation - Hey monkey(that he sleeps with) close your eyes(to go to sleep), get under the covers". My favorite Cooperism
