Logan-Speak

Some random bits about the boys' speech:

Sometimes we think Isaac is simply mispronouncing words, but was insisting this morning that Jane call cinnamon "simmon" and leftover "left-mores."

Yesterday, Jane asked Isaac what he wants to be when he grows up. His answer? A zebra.

Isaac loves to make up songs. The lyrics of his latest are: "Oh, Sigh-see is breaking my heart all day long." (Although he can say Simon, he generally still says Sigh-see as a nickname)

Lately, Isaac puts toys into a bowl, stirs them around with a spoon and makes soup. (Simon mimics him the whole time) He is always certain to tell us what kind of soup, though it's obvious by the toys in the bowl: car soup, train soup, people soup, puzzle soup, etc. Yesterday, he had a piece of paper and said it was the recipe for his soup. We asked him what the recipe called for, and he said: "blueberries, bananas, strawberries, and cake." We think that sounds like some pretty delicious soup!

Simon will try to repeat just about anything these days. Unprompted though, he says Mama, Dada, go, na (banana), geh (grape), baw (ball), up, pop, buh (book), uh-oh, hot...and a few more that aren't coming to mind at the moment. We can't believe how quickly he is learning new words!
