Monkey learned to talk backwards. Which means when he was learning to speak he started saying the ends of words instead of the beginnings.
Water was "ter."
Blanket was "et."
And believe me it was extremely difficult to figure out what he was ever saying. Which wasn't helped by the fact he was attempting to use big words at the same time, like "delicious," and "creepy."
Then when he started trying to say the beginnings of words he stuttered. And stuttered. And when he learned a new word, he stuttered. And stuttered.
I thought he was over the whole thing but yesterday he was going around saying, "Sippy Misses One, Sippy Misses Two, Sippy Misses Three."
"Don't you mean One Mississippi, Two Mississippi?" I asked.
Of course he just said, "Nope." I think that was the one word he learned correctly the very first time.
