The boy's new words

It's good that he is learning new things, but it is not so good if he does something non-stop.

"Wash-wash"
Peter is somehow fasinated about washing his hands. Everywhere we went, whether it's a store, a zoo, or whatever it is, Peter wants to go "wash-wash" whenever he sees a door(he takes it as a bathroom door, i guess). The annoying part is, you can not refuse it. He will scream until you give up. So, I have been taking him go "wash-wash" all these past several days.

"Bao-Bao" or "Ba-Ba-Bao"
It was my fault in the beginning. I admit. Peter began to say "bao-bao" (meaning "hold me" in Chinese). I guess i wanted to do it to impress him that it is the right word to say when he wants to be held up. He did grasp that pretty quickly, but then he decided to say it the whole day Sunday and now whenever i am around. It sometimes evolves to "Ba-Ba-Bao", meaning" daddy hold me", but unfortunately he still insists I am the one to hold him. Ugh....
