Saige's Vocabulary List

Here is a list of Saige's vocabulary words. She will copy any word we try to get her to say, but these words are ones she'll use repeatedly and accurately. I'd like to think that she is 'advanced' but a) I'm sure all other moms would like to think this of their kids, and b) I don't have another child to compare her to! Or, an older, future Saige (who has traveled back in time, mind you) to prove it matters in the long run. So, here ya go...

The usual rundown:

• mama, dada, yaya, papa, bye-bye, hi, paci, blanki, puppy, doggy, baby, phone, no, soft, shoes, fishies, uh-oh

More unique (phonetically spelled, of course):

• Side? = Outside?!
• Mah = for 'more' but will say this even if she hasn't had a 1st bite yet.
• No-knee = nose
• eyes
• toes
• mouf = mouth
• Bah-dee = belly button
• hair
• ears & earring
• cack = cat
• MEOW (caps for yelling or loud cat voice)
• fi-yah = fire
• sssss = kisses
• GAAAAAHH = God
• zee-zah = Jesus
• chips = shouldn't have taught her this one! When she says it, it comes much different! It would be a category 2 or 3 word according to Missy.
• Dake-du = Thank you
• Trees = Broccoli
• cookie

Unique phrases or gestures:

• Bye-bye fi-yah = when I blow out the candle
• NAH-NAH-NAH-NAH-NAH! = telling the cats 'No!' in a high pitched voice whilst shaking a finger high in the air.

Can't think of anymore. Will add more when they come to me. Here's a picture just for fun...
