Things Gunner Says

Gunner's verbal skills are improving all the time. He is learning new words constantly, and he is starting to repeat things he hears. A little scary considering I can't always control what he hears, but every parent deals with this I guess.
He is excellent at using the same tone and inflection he hears other people use. When he says certain things, it sounds identical to the way I would say it. One funny thing he has been doing for a couple of days is yelling "MAMAAAA!!!!" and I will say (a bit quieter) "GUNNER!" and he loves it. He has started saying it slower, lower and quieter and I will copy him. He just laughs and laughs.
He likes to call out for people he knows (Mama, Daddy, Nana, Papa, Nanny, Pawpaw) and can name each of them in his photo albums.
He's been trying to master saying "okay", but it's coming out "ahshaaa". That darn k sound. He loves saying "yeah", and if he hears us say it he will go crazy saying "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!"
He's been repeating things from his favorite cartoons, like when they say yes, no, or make animal sounds like moo. There's a song they play on Nick Jr. that has ooo ooo parts, and he repeats it. In the car today a song on the radio had something like nah nah nah, and he was singing it!! Smart kit.
He's starting to make two word sentences also. He loves saying "Uh oh Daddy" and "Uh oh Mama". (he also uses "uh oh" when a recorded episode of Bubble Guppies is over. He says uh oh and finds me to turn on another episode. Spoiled!) He can say "Bye bye Daddy/Momma/Nana/Papa" and he has also invented a new word that he uses when he can't say your name or doesn't know your name. It sounds something like "Bye bye ledledledle". He just sticks his tongue in and out. Ha! Lately, when it's time for bed or for a nap, when I lay him down he tells me bye bye. So sweet!
He's started saying "wow", "Wheeee!" and "yay" when he's playing.
My favorite thing he has said thus far though pertains to diaper changes. He has had some particularly epic poopy diapers the last few days, and most of them have caught me off guard. I wasn't prepared with the amount or nastiness when I opened the diapers, so I would just say "Oh noooo!" and then do what moms do and talk silly to keep their kid entertained. (funny sounds, silly faces, whatever.) After that, each time I open his diapers, he says "Oh no!" Ohhh noo!!" and smiles at me. Silly kid!!!! Gotta learn to be careful what I say from now on.
