evolution of names

So baby Snap is, of course, a baby. And therefore talks like one--dada and mama and həp (help or [h]up or both) and doll and see! and olivyew[1] and cetera and cetera, getting more and more complex as she explores her tongue. This evolution has brought her a recent commitment to dadeee instead of dada which is very good. She likes this new daddy trick so very much that she'll just walk around going dadee? daddeee. daddeee, daddee! with every inflection Perfect.

Now. Her sister's name is much harder than dad or mom or even grandma[2] and papa, so we were all very interested in her version, which has turned out to be... Well. I guess to translate to Goose's internet codename, it would be "bear bear". It is extremely funny and cute, both for the skip on the first syllables and for how she says it. Recently tho, she's been enjoying daddy so much she's branching out to "bearbie" and. auroduaotidualgd . soin eodleo. It is So Cute.
