Kieran Words
Kieran is talking very well now, using five and six word sentences. Here are some words that he doesn't have quite down.
Padatiller = Caterpillar
Mococytal = Motorcycle
Hepicotter = Helicopter
Zukit = Music
Gnulk = Milk
Tract-ear = Tractor
Wototidder = Rototiller
Wonower or Wonmower = Lawnmower
Cut Tree "vvvvv" = Chainsaw
Backsetball = Basketball
Nuggow = Snuggle
Ky (fly) = Airplane
Heepo or Heepopotnus = Hippopotamus
Piddow = Pillow
The one we've heard most often lately is "Tract-ear". We rented a Bobcat three weeks ago and Kieran has been thinking of nothing else since. He searches for tractors everywhere we go: real tractors, pictures of tractors, lawnmowers, trucks, dump trucks, trailers, garbage trucks. Its all very exciting. We've heard "Tractir, daddy drive it, vvvvvv, beep, beep, beep, scoop, dump" over and over again.
Kieran has also become proficient at identifying the sounds of these machines. If we hear a noise, he knows right away if it is a chainsaw, lawnmower, motorcycle, large truck, or tractor and offers the correct label. Then, he looks up at mommy and says "Find it?" and starts walking.
Its very cute how he asks for things. He says "Mommy, nuggow it baby?", or "Hode it, baby?" When he gets tired he asks, "Piddow, banket, nuggow it baby?"
I wish we could get some of this on video, but he hides!

Turtle visits the Tennysonian
An Eastern Box turtle that looks a lot like the picture to the left has visited the Tennysonian this morning. Daddy was leaving for work and saw a terrapin crossing the road. Out of concern for its safety (we have seen the unfortunate results of similar crossings in the past), Daddy rescued the pretty little girl and brought her back to the Tennysonian as a morning wake-up surprise for Mommy and Baby.
As Eastern Box Turtles make excellent pets, we are considering keeping her for a while to get to know this amazing creature. We are converting to a single fish aquarium and will use the larger aquarium as a terrarium (it has a leak). With a nice basking light and all the lettuce one could desire, this will be a luxury hangout for our new friend.
We are currently looking for name suggestions. So far the one Daddy has suggested (Soup) has been rejected. Please submit your name suggestions to this post.
