玄玄buckles herself

After a 3-4 days of exploring, today the little girl finally mastered the skill of buckling herself up in her high chair. She's so into it that she keeps buckling up and telling me to unbuckle her just so that she can buckle up again. Good job, kid!

牙牙学语

小玄子is definitely trying to communicate with us, albeit just via some nonsensical blabbering. She has picked up some more words though. A bit off, but still understandable.

‘街街’ (Gai Gai) is Ga Ga
‘鞋子’ is Je Zi
‘谢谢’ is Xe Xe
‘姐姐’ is Je Je
‘舅舅’ is Giu Giu
‘婆婆’ is Bo Bo
‘抱抱’ is Ba4 Ba4
'Bye Bye' is also Ba Ba

Luckily, there are still some more words that she did picked up accurately and is speaking well.

‘公公’,‘姑姑’,‘奶奶’,‘爷爷’,'Ball' and 'Apple' sounds right.




She has been producing her own baby lingo as well. Mickey and Minnie Mouse are called 'bak' for unknown reasons. And she has been humming 'um mo po', 'um bo po' and 'um mo po po' frequently. Nobody seems to be able to decipher that or relate that to anything. *scratch head*

Interesting!

R(A) Language

Sometimes kids just say funny things. Was in the lift with 姑姑 today and I told 玄玄 to 叫姑姑. She just refused to say anything. After the lift reach our floor, I walked out with her first, and she said ‘姑姑叫’ to me. Sounds so R(A)!!!
