"Bay-Dee and Wy-Lee"

The other day, my dad referred to grapes as "EEPS," and it reminded me that Maysie used to call her favorite fruit, "EEPS!" I was a little sad because I realized just how fast she is growing up. I also remeber that I did a previous post that translated some of her adorable "baby talk." Although she sounds like such a big girl with very few articulation errors, it is now fun to listen to what she has to say instead. On the other hand, I am still lucky enough to be entertained with the way my dearest Mylie talks. It is so cute, and I want to capture some words/phrases. So, here is a little bit of translation to "Mylie talk:"

Baydee= Maysie
Wylee Ofayah Aucoat= Mylie Saraiya Hillcoat
Particuth= Spartacus (mini pig)
Hi are yooo?= Where are you?
*Huh?*= Mylie's way of asking a question...she adds this to the end of everything? (i.e. "Hi are yoo, huh? You want one, huh?)
Titty Tat= Kitty cat
Bean-Tee= Binky
Ayedono= I don't know
Woe-bot-danth= Robot Dance
Baby Soup= Bathing Suit
**My favorite: Aye Ya Yoo, Mommy!= I love you, Mommy!**
