Ee-Yah!

John has finally added the word "yes" to his repertoire, long after the word "no" (I think that was one of his first words).

Yes is much more pleasing, especially because John says it with so much enthusiasm.

"Do you want some juice, John?" (by which I mean his rice or soy milk).

"Ee-Yah!"

"Do you want to sit in my lap (and read)?"

"Ee-yah!"

"Do you need some help, John?" (as he's dangling from the Learning Tower)

"Yaaaah!"

It feels as if we are having a little conversation.
