I may have mentioned that Jake has been in a phase of repeating the end of every sentence he hears, non-stop. It’s crazy, but he can say almost anything. He’s quite the little parrot. Some of his more recent utterances:
James: “Can you scrape out the pumpkin guts?”
Jake: “Punkin guts.”
James (on using a fork to eat): “Stab it, stab it!”
Jake: “Stab it.”
James: “Would you like some more gnocchi?”
Jake: “Gnocchi.” (I swear, we can’t even say gnocchi. It was the most Italian sounding “gnocchi” I’ve ever heard. A bit like his “crouton” which is “crew-Toh” with a nasally little French accent, I kid you not.)
The same night as gnocchi…
James: “Bellisima!”
Jake: “Bellisima!”
James: “Che Italiano!”
Jake: “Che Italiano!”
This could go on for hours…
True story – on my flight back from Argentina, where I got a fancy pants upgrade to business, the guy next to me points to the dinner menu and says “uh, can you tell me what this ‘gah-nocki’ thing is?”. Jakey officially has better verbal skills than an (approx) 50 year old man!
