Mamau

A conversation I had with mummy today….

Mummy: Say mummy

Haye Li: Papa

Mummy: Say mummy

Haye Li: Papa

Mummy: Say cheh-cheh

Haye Li: Tear-tear

Mummy: Say kakak

Haye Li: ta-tak

Mummy: Say mummy

Haye Li: Papa

Mummy: SAY MUMMY!

Haye Li: Mamau!


--------------------------------------------------------------------
I’m such a papa’s girl. I love calling him all day and get his response. If he doesn’t response to me, I’ll go to him and say “papau!” (asking to be carried).

I also love calling my cheh-cheh or kakak around the house and get their response too.

Mummy is wondering why I don’t call her “mahmeh” which I used to and she’s settling for “mamau” now which I also use to call the cat….suppose to be ‘meow-meow’ but I can only say “mamau”.

Other words I can say lately:-

Please/Fish = peesh

Nose = nioshe

There = deh

Me = meh

Yes = yesh

No = nio

Dog = wo-who

Ball = bor

Bird = bur

Beat = bik

Smack = mack

I was the last person Alycia called last time. She just couldn't pronounce 'mummy' and could only do so after 2yo. Sher and Baby C have no prob calling me 'mummy' at 1yo. Very soon, Haye Li will be yakking away and you'll wish she would just shut up, haha!

I'm still waiting for my boy to call me 'Mummy' or 'Mama'. He's babbling 'mum-mum-ma-ma', though not specifically directed at me yet. :)
