"Mon-gabah"


Pronounced mahn-gahbah. Liberty came into the office today and said mon-gabah... and she said it several times. Now, I really believe that when a baby says the same exact thing over, and over that it becomes more than babble and she is trying to tell me something. "So... what could this possible mean? " I asked her what? a few times so she would say it again, then I, being a mom, started to figure it out by replaying her morning schedules. Knowing the first thing she usually wants to do in the morning is eat, I said "are you hungry?" and she responded "yea, mon-gabah." So, I repeated her, just to be sure- "mongabah?" And she answered "yea." She turned around and headed for the kitchen. So, for future reference, mongabah means I'm hungry! I love baby words! We tend to keep the best ones and use them in our daily vocabulary in our family!

Too cute...we still love Devon's "bak-E-ahh" which was basketball and Austin's "mimi" which was his blankie...of which it is still called today and Juli's "chew-ga-der" for cheerleader. Kids are so cute. I am glad you have it written down. I wish I would have written a lot more of Devon's funny word pronunciations down. How are you all doing? We miss seeing you guys!!!

Oh my goodness!! That is such a stinkin' cute word! I can't believe these three little girls are getting big enough to talk. Sad! Good thing it's so dang fun to watch them grow though, right! We miss you guys a ton! Give them hugs for me!
