How She Talks

The paperwork is underway for LG to get some speech therapy. She mainly drops off the first consonants of many words. Her talking sounds like a pile of vowels. In context and when you are with her, she is easier to understand. When she is on the phone, it all sounds like gibberish. These three words sound exactly the same...barbecue, baby food, bathing suit. Hadley and Daddy used to sound identical, but she has since fixed Daddy. Hadley still sounds messed up. For B, she used to say B Beer, then she moved to Bibbitz, and now Binton. For D, she says Naney, the exact same way that D used to say her own name. For J, she says Yoyo. For GL, she says My baby or Orge En. She speaks with lots of expression and her most recent new word is "embarassed".
