    You know, not all the syllables are there. Cado, or Cawoah, and Beh or Butt. Mostly Butt. Of course.

    Wow. I’m totally impressed and looking forward to the day our little one (almost 11 months now) says something meaningful in context. Lots of jabbering – still seems to be mostly nonsense….
