Wuh-wuh, Wuh-wuh, Wuh-wuh

That's "color, color, color" for those of you not yet fluent in Kelly-speak. The language lightbulb has gone off for her and she has become so much more verbal in the last few weeks. But you have to know what you're listening for in order to understand her. This gem of a conversation took place last week:

(Shannon and Kelly are in the family room, Jodi is in the hallway)

Kelly: Wuh-wuh, wuh-wuh, wuh-wuh.
Shannon: (funny fake "be nice to babies" voice) What you want, Kello?
Kelly: Wuh-wuh, wuh-wuh, wuh-wuh
Shannon: No wuh-wuh. I say, what you want?
Kelly: Wuh-wuh, wuh-wuh, wuh-wuh
Shannon: Kelly. My name Shannon, not wuh-wuh. Shan-non (she was very careful to enunciate)
Kelly: Wuh-wuh, wuh-wuh, wuh-wuh
Shannon: (mad) Kelly! My name Shannon, not wuh-wuh!
Jodi: (shouting) Shannon, she wants to color! She's saying "color"
Shannon: (shouting back) No, Mommy, she saying "wuh-wuh."
