Communication

September 3, 2007

Wrigglebot is communicating more each day. At first it was really cute he would point and say ‘Uugh, uugh,’ which sounds like a little repetitive grunting noise and then we would have to go and investigate what he was pointing at. This is all good except when it happens just about every five seconds and the response from any stimulating comments of mine is ‘Uugh, uugh.’ He can say some words like mum and dad and bir, which can mean bird or ball.

I guess I am just looking forward to when he can talk fluently and discuss current events with me. He doesn’t have to hold my opinions he just needs to be able to converse intelligently. Not that I am putting much pressure on him or anything, I mean he can’t even say ‘I want to get out of bed’ yet. For him he does well with cries and grunts although I just want to be able to talk with my little boy.

However, if he could talk now I am not so sure that I would want to listen as I have a small hunch that every second word would be ‘food’ and every other word ‘hungry’ or ‘eat’.
