Speck's new words (so far)

Speck's vocabulary has been growing rapidly for the past few months. It's amazing to watch her learn and repeat words that we just take for granted.

She calls Pepper - Pa pa
Tweeter has been named - Doe Doe
She still uses sounds for a number of other animals:
Dog - arf arf
Cat - meow (both our cats are called that)
Horse - Neigh
Sheep - Baa Baa
Cow - it used to me Mmmmm now it's Moooo
Lion - Argh (sounds more like the clearing of her throat)
Tiger - same as above
Juice - Jews (i swear that's what it sounds like)
This and that - these days everything is This or that. (it's all those options we give her I guess)
Snack (any kind) - Aveeya. ( I have no idea where she got this from)
Elmo - Sounds like Um Ma
Greeting - HIYA
Night night - sounds like Nigh Nigh
See ya - Eee Ya
Her friend MJ is - Emm
At first she started calling all babies/toddlers - Ta Ta but has since graduated to calling them all Bee Bee.
Yogurt - Ta Ta and now Bee Bee (her yogurt has a pic of a baby on there, i am guessing that is where she got it from)
Shoes - Ties (that's what it sounds like. This is one of the first words she made up on her own and it's stuck with her. Yes people she calls her shoes TIES. don't ask)
Socks are called - Tox (that's what it sounds like)
Button - Butt
Trees and leaves are all - Tea
Thank you - Taa Tea
Please - Peeeeeease (we've taught her to drag it out for obvious reasons)


Body Parts- Speck has been learning body parts for a while now:
Head - Head
Hair - Hay
Toes (does quite say the word)
Nose - Noe
Knees - Nee
Eyes - Eyezz
Eyebrow - eyebow
Ears - EeeAhh
Cheek - no word for it yet, but she knows where it is
Chin - Cheeee
Hands - no word for it yet
Rice for some reason has turned into - Bice
Ice - Ice (come on that's pretty simple)
