huck has plenty to say these days. the dude only has about six words in english, but it doesn't hold him back. most times when i try and get him to repeat words with me he'll look at me very scornfully. like, "why would i stop the perfectly stimulating conversation we're having to repeat silly one-syllable words at you? come on now." i suppose it's my fault for always acting like i understand what he's saying.
related: the other day on the subway we were having quite the in-depth conversation when huck noticed that the lovely woman sitting next to us was giving him some attention. so he turned to her and continued his nonsense yammering (complete with hand motions and very eloquent facial expressions). she nodded and smiled at him, then looked up and over to her husband and started speaking in spanish. huck got this look on his face like, "what language is THAT!?" but you know who speaks the nonsense language here? that would be YOU, huck. not the nice spanish lady.

so i snuck this little video the other day. it is cute. and you're going to enjoy it. i promise.
how great is his monkey-like dismount from the bed.
it's one of my most favorite things in the whoooole world.
(is that a nursing bra on the floor? yes it is. you're welcome!)
holy joy that was the best thing I have seen in a long time. I love how he keeps falling on his bum. he is the cutest.
ReplyDeletenote to self: make a baby asap
I just died from the cuteness. I showed this to my co-worker, and we both Ooh'd and Aah'd and aw'd the entire video.
ReplyDeleteHilarious!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! This is SO cute! I about died! He's such a cutie pie!
ReplyDeleteAH! Super cute! And he needs to teach his monkey-like dismount to my 15mo old who generally just tries to walk straight off the bed, thelma and louise style.
ReplyDeleteThe best.
ReplyDeleteSo when do they learn not to fall off the bed? Because I need that day to come.
SO cute! My 18 month old knows that language well! :)
ReplyDeleteMy goodness... He is the cutest little human I ever did see.
ReplyDeleteoh my heck he is so dang cute. i wish i could come babysit him one night! (:
ReplyDeleteThis is making me very sad/excited for 18 months. He is a gem. Loved every minute of the video. Nursing bras rock!
ReplyDeleteoh man, I miss my little one speaking gobbledygook. Huck is too stinking cute for words. I know I shouldn't say this, because I have a child of my own, but seriously, that boy is the cutest little thing I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. I can't even. This was SO CUTE!
ReplyDeletelove it! i always feel compelled to be eating a bagel with cream cheese when I read your blog every morning.... :)
ReplyDeleteI love it! Huck's body shape and personality totally remind me of my oldest boy (now 6 years old WHAT?) He spoke Huck's language for sure. When he was about 2, he got a red sharpie and drew at kid level all over his closet doors. When I asked him what it said he spoke the gobbledy-gook in great detail and gestured with his hand, and then for good measure he threw in "two, seben, two, seben, dog, seben, two"
ReplyDeleteWhat's not to love?
That is definitely thee cutest 50 second video ever. Huck steals my heart every time. xo!
ReplyDeleteOh god, Huck is the cutest thing in the entire world!
ReplyDeleteMy kids were very entertained watching Huck. My daughter wanted to know "Who's that boy?" And when he walked out the door my son said "Go? Mommy, go?" It all made me smile and miss the days my kids used to jibber jab :)
ReplyDeleteIt's the simple pleasures...
ReplyDeletethanks
so amazingly cute. my babes aren't babies anymore so thank you for that.
ReplyDeletemy ovaries are aching.
Cute. Love the head shaking! He looks a little less like a big boy in his tshirt with his cute little chub legs peeking out underneath.
ReplyDeleteSidenote: How many sheep skins do you have. I'm envious. ;)
He is so adorable!!! I would get nothing done all day with him around. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my this was adorable, what a fun city companion he must be!
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to pin this for the next time I'm having a bad day.
ReplyDeleteThere is a very lyrical quality to his conversing. And with the rhythmic hand motions to go with it, I am predicting the next great rap star. My 14 month daughter took some time off of whining to be transfixed by this.
ReplyDeleteSOOOO cute!
Oh man. Dismount; all the falling on his little bum; and his hand motions! adorable.
ReplyDeleteoh what a darling little boy you have! I can't wait till i have one : )
ReplyDeletehaha...how fun! he's adorable.
ReplyDeleteOk. That was ADORABLE. I can't wait until my little man (8 mo.) starts talking!
ReplyDeleteSo hilarious and adorable! His dismount was priceless! :)
ReplyDeleteThis totally reminded me of that famous youtube video "jessica's daily affirmation". The one with the little curly blonde girl listing (in the mirror) all the things she likes about her life. I'm sure Huck was saying the same kind of stuff! So cute.
ReplyDeleteMy 17 month old son came running in from outside when he heard Huck. He keeps yelling at me to replay it but, I got to stop it sometime, right?
ReplyDeleteSooooo sweet! Can't wait until Liam can fake talk :)
ReplyDeleteOhh maaii gawwwsh. I just watched that 2 times in a row.
ReplyDeleteAt the 30 second marker I thought he was going to do a somersault dismount for a moment. That would have been awesome.
Do you do the pursed lips thing when you are thinking out loud? Because Huck is adorable when he does that.
so stinkin' cute. my very own real life toddlersat on my lap while i played this and when it ended he said "adain puhwease, adain ohhh bayybwee". Apparently they speak the same language.
ReplyDeletexoxo,

What a cutie!!
ReplyDeleteOh my! I nearly stood up to hug the computer monitor! Now I'm dying to wake up our littlest one. Huck's just the sweetest!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed watching this, but my little 17 month old enjoyed it even more. He had an in depth convo with Huck through the computer.
ReplyDeleteHe is adorable. Enjoy it, you will have more as he is growing.
ReplyDeleteI. can. not. stand. it. that was so cute!
ReplyDeleteOH HUCK.
ReplyDeleteI love how he got up every single time he fell on his bum! I would have given up and sat there to keep talking to myself!
ReplyDeleteOMG! The dismount from the bead --- quite possibly the cutest/funniest thing!! Cannot wait until my Tuck starts to do this stuff!! : ) Thank you for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteHUCK. you talkative rascal with an awesome dismount.
ReplyDeletethis was wonderful - thank you for sharing.
"What's that about, Dave" haha you kill me.
ReplyDeleteJust saying, if you ever need a sitter... I've got references. Let me know. I'm in the Slope.
ReplyDeleteOh, Huck.
ReplyDeleteThe hands are the best.
And the scoot of the bed.
And the shaking of the head.
Okay. I can't decide.
That was pretty much the most adorable thing I've ever seen...oh the baby fever.
ReplyDeleteokay, probably cutest thing i have seen all day....nope, all week! i love the determination in his voice and pose each time he makes himself stand back up again! and that quick crawl, man, this kid knows what he is doing!
ReplyDeletep.s. i can totally imagine the face huck gave that sweet spanish lady. hilarious!!
xo TJ
He is too stinkin cute. My little is 20 1/2 months and in the last two months it's been an explosion of words! She wants to know what everything is and tell you what everything is. But I still savor those moments where she has full on conversations of straight up baby babble.
ReplyDeleteHis hands were really expressing some emotion there! So cute! :)
ReplyDeleteWatched this with Hudson and we're both smitten!!
ReplyDeleteOh my heart. That little pucker with the pointer finger to his mouth is precious. I think he is just most lovable, adorable baby that I'm not related to in the whole galaxy.
ReplyDeleteoh my word. he is the cutest thing i've seen today! haha awww melt my heart:)
ReplyDeletethe dismount made me laugh so hard.
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh i am dying of cuteness, nat!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this.
ReplyDeleteHA! The tapping of the finger to the lips awesome!
ReplyDeleteOh. My. God. My uterus just cried out for a foetus.
ReplyDeleteThat is the most adorable video in the world. You are lucky to have such an adorable little man. :)
