Phoebe speak

Earlier this week, I told the story of Phoebe's baseball recognition, or her word -- "bae-bol."

She's got these words down pat: no, potty, mommy, daddy, on, off, Elmo, Ernie, baby, up, away, bye, cheese and doggie.

But we're still working on the right ways to say other common words ...

Here's a look at some of the other words in Phoebe's vocabulary these days ...

die-da-go ... time to go

huck ... hug

all-rye ... all right

ra-ros ... Cheerios

ah da-baum ... "I dropped it" or just da-baum when she's referring to an object that fell

he-wo ... hello

hoe-wee ... Chloe (Grandma and Grandpa's dog)

ma'ama ... Grandma

a-pa ... Grandpa

na-ma-nae ... watermelon (her word sounds more like lemonade, but ok)

pees ... please (which she signs by practically putting her neck in a choke hold)

appo ... apple

ah-duh ... water

joo ... juice

ott dog ... hot dog

ma ... milk

mo ... more (which she signs by hand-clapping)

aw-duh ... all done
