ba!

it's funny how a single syllable can be used many different ways by a 16-month-old baby...

-Simba, his favorite stuffed toy

-peek-ba!, our modified version of the game peek-a-boo, where we cover his eyes and say "peek" and when we remove our hands, he will say "ba!"

-Buzz (Lightyear), his foot-tall talking toy from tatay

-baba, or go down from the bedroom

-bath (he says "ba" when he sees anyone holding a towel, or hears the words towel, bathroom, or take a bath)

-bus (any big vehicle he sees on the street is a "ba", even if it's a truck, container van, or a firetruck)

amusing... makes me smile everytime. slowly but surely, he is adding more words to his vocabulary, and we are continuously teaching him everyday. at his age, he doesn't speak clear words yet, but i will take "ba" and its hundred different meanings anyday.
