One more word to your linguistic repertoire

Baby Zoe, 


You are going through a linguistic breakthrough. You are able to capture the main phonemes of the words you hear, and repeat. Although you can't say the words accurately, the sounds you catch foreshadow perfect pronunciation in months to come. There is one more word to be added to your master list: Bubble! 




This picture (where you are dressed as a devil for your first Halloween) doesn't represent your excitement over bubbles, but they make you ecstatic and you ask for them over and over and over: "Bobbaeeeeel! Bobbaeeeel!"


*UPDATE!*
ZOE, THIS EVENING YOU SAID TWO MORE WORDS! "UOVO" AND "BUTT." 
Your 'uovo' sounded more like 'wovo,' which is good enough, especially when you were pointing directly at an egg, but the way you pronounced 'butt' was perfect. Papa and I were so excited, that we asked you to point at the butt of your stuffed animals, as well as ours. You gave each a mini spank, and said "butt, butt."


Here is the complete list of words you say:
Buh bye
Mamma
Papa
Boob
Hot

Bubble
Uovo
Butt
