Owen's words

Tomorrow Owen is one week shy of 11 months. He's got several words he uses that we can decipher and probably a hundred more in his own little Owen language that we can't understand! As for English words, as of today Owen says:

kitty
kitty cat
hi!
tow/toe (we think this might mean "truck")
too
car
Dada/Dad
Mama (usually only when whining for something)
yes (new as of yesterday)
turtle (mimicked before, but said with purpose tonight when he picked up a toy turtle)

There have been a few words he's said after we said them: cable, Carrie (!), and breeze (said to Nona outside in the backyard!).

People who have seen Owen lately, am I missing any?

playing outside

Owen loves to be outside but doesn't love the grass. Perfect for picking up sticks!

backyard

This is the one part of our fixer-upper that doesn't have to be fixed up. I love it.
