In the Land of Roc

Rocco's language lately has exploded. He is putting a ton of 2 and 3 word phrases together.

BUT

It is Rocco-style language. I call it double talk. Everything is said in Rocco-style double talk.

What is that you might ask?? Let me give you many examples.

The obvious list includes:
Mama
Dada
Papa
Meemee (Grammie)
Jiljil
Mama (can also refer to Mashur) (Poor sis will never be called by her given name but she seems to take it fully in stride and revels in her Mashur/mama status. Although she clearly displays jealously that Roc clearly says BillBill even if it is double talk)
Billbill
GG (great grandma)
Mel Mel (the dog)
no no (never just one no)

The not so obvious list includes:
wawa (water)
gaga (glasses)
caca (cold waffle)
cofcof (coffee)
sorsor (sorry)
baba (bath)

So the phrases I hear the most right now are:
Sorsor Mama or
Sorsor Jiljil
No No Jiljil

He does have some single words that will crack you up too like:
Gocco (Rocco)
lo you too! (love you too)
ice ceam (ice cream)
Cheese (Poor Papa Cheese has gotten cut to just the Cheese)
wof (his favorite 3 pigs villian)
Max
Ruby
boos coos (blues clues)

He is just saying the funniest things right now and it is the way he says everything in a certain tone and expression.

Totally random note: I had a parent of one of my ex-students (who I see all of the time) today ask me if I was pregnant. Cracks me up!!!! Ahhh, that would be a yes.
