No lie, that's a picture of Lyla looking at Oscar the Grouch and saying Dada. She's so passive-aggressive.
Her Sesame Street vocabulary is increasing. She does know Oscar (Ah-sta), and of course there's Bert (Buht) and Elmo (Elmo). Most of the time she knows Ernie (Uh-nee). And she has always pronounced Snuffleupagus impeccably.
If we ask Lyla what something is and she doesn't know, she'll babble something random in hopes of getting partial credit. It's like when you took the ACTs and marked C for half the math section.
"What's that?" Julie will say while pointing to a horse.
"Nuh-ba."
See, Lyla expects us to get all excited. But we're wise to her little game.
"No, Lyla. That's a horse. Horse."
Big smile. "Neigh."
