George has two mommies (35 weeks, 3 days)
I remember that in my developmental psychology class we learned how kids overgeneralize when they learn new words- apply what few words they know too generally. George does this in some funny ways. Not only do sheep say baa but cows and horses do as well, and nearly any quadruped for which he hasn't already learned its sound. Off means both on and off. But the funniest one is that mama means either parent, or also any person in a picture. I can imagine this may lead to some entertaining situations if he does it in public very much. As it is, we laugh every morning when Tim leaves for work and George is calling after him "mama, mama!"
