A conversation

I: Hey, Little One!
She: Ah-goo! *with toothless smile, saliva dripping down chin*

I: Ah-good morning to you too, Little One, how are you today?
She: Ahn-dray..

I: Ah'm dray-ned too... you cried and fussed so much last night... I was exhausted....I must look terrible this morning, don't I?
She: Uh-glee. *with a gurgle*

I: Ugly?? Hmph. All your doing, Little One. But seriously, what was bothering you last night?
She: Ooooo. *eyebrows arched*

I: Me? Hmph again. What on earth do I do with you?
She: Gloooo....

I: Glue? Great idea. I will glue your little lips together and your little hands and little legs and tie you up so that you can't do anything at all! Anyway, tell me, what's the plan for today?
She: Huh-geeee.. *With a sideways glance and fluttering eyelashes*

I: Okay sweetheart, first a bigggg huggie. There. Now let's get down to business. what would you like to do now?
She: Unga....greee...

I: Hungry? Okay! Let's have breakfast, come on!
She: Khoo!

Who says two-month-olds can't converse?

no words to explain....those words of "little one" could only be understood by a mother (you).

She sounds soooo cute!! They say, baby talk is an official language!!! She seems to be getting what she wants without saying a word!!

That was so cute! 2 month old babies talk so much that at times you will end up thinking they are narrating some experience to you. My daughter would speak on and on whenever we returned from some little excursion out of the house. I would actually believe that she was telling me everything that happened :)

That was soooo cute Shruthi!

I came across your blog a couple of weeks back, and have been coming back for more everyday. I especially love these cute posts about your lil one.

Wait for a few more months when she really starts speaking in her totli zabaan... I remember struggling to understand my niece's baby talk which only my mausi could interpret. Is this a quality restricted to moms only? :-)

Collection of Stars, heyy this kid does that too!! It is exactly as if she is telling me what she saw and did! and it happens only when we go out and come back, and when someone comes home.

Chitra, did he like it? :)
