Nathan's vocabulary

Nathan has been making some pretty solid gains in his vocabulary and word/action association lately, so I thought I'd try to capture a few of the more interesting ones on video. Of course that's near impossible.


Here's a rundown in textual form while I gather the necessary video footage...
  • "Maman" = Mom (Alex, sometimes Sam)
  • "Papa" = Papa (Sam)
  • "Non non" = no. Or sometimes it just means wait a minute.
  • --> ("Screaming amazingly loud" also still means no sometimes...)
  • "Woo woo" or "bow woo" = Dog (or any furry animal)
  • "Baim" or "Bain" = Food ("Pain" is bread in French)
  • "Hi" or "Cou cou" = Hello
  • "La la" or "La le" = "Le lait"
  • "Bye bye" = Aurevoir
  • Nathan will consistently and eagerly do the "how big is nathan... so big" game
  • He will also pretty consistently say "Beee" and clap his hands. We think he might be trying to save "bravo."
