1. Found a sheet of paper where Pip had written:
hair
ear nose ears
mouth
tami
hand ohannnnnn
nes ne
foot feet
A self-portrait in text? "Ohannnn" is "other hand" I think, and then we have his guesses at "tummy" and "knee."
2. At dinner I gave Wm some bread and he said "Whattoo we do widduh bread? We EATuh bread! Whattoo we do widduh soda? We EATuh soda!" "Whattoo we do widduh water? We EATuh water!"
His verbs are a little confused, but I don't think anyone's ever said this to him, so he made up the query-reply pairing on his own.
3. When Pip is done with a bath, he says "bye-bye, water." Wm sometimes says this with the same intonation. We drove past a catchpond and Wm said "issa water!" and then he said "bye-bye, water." So Pip replied "bye-bye, water." You could just see the "I can make big brother do something!" light go on over Wm's head, and he kept saying "bye-bye water" and then laughing like a madman when Pip would repeat it back. This went on for a couple of miles.
