The X Man Speaketh
Wednesday, April 15, 2009
In April, the ECI specialist has arranged for a SLP (Speech Language Pathologist) to come evaluate Mr X (yeah, he's Mr X, not Baby X now. Sigh.)

She wants me to keep a record of sounds and words he says, and so here it is! I'm less likely to lose it if it's kept in cyberspace. I'll be updating it, so I apologize if it keeps annoying you in your blog reader!

Sounds:
/s/
sh
/l/
/oo/
/v/
/b/
rah rah (dog barking)
dog panting
tooo (choo choo)


Says Regularly:
ha (hi)
hullo
Bah-bye (Bye-bye)
Daddy
doh/no
da (dog)
umma (Emma)
nie-nie (night-night)
lie (light)
day-doo (thank you)
buh (bus)
Mama

Said once:

oople (apple)
shoe
pop
meow
blast off! (bah off)
Boo (bowl)
"no-no-no" I don't know (more the "sound" of I-dunno than the actual words)

Signs he uses independently
please
more
help
drink
eat
truck (we made up a sign)
baby

Signs he'll use if he sees others do it:
salt
fork
bubble
want
thank you

Signs he'll respond to but won't make himself:
Where
Want
What
See
Hear

And - not speech but bragging - he recognized his written name! Or at least the letter X.
