Downsense, Moke and Babytalk

Eli's over two now, but he now will intentionally say things as he did when he was a baby to be cute.  If we're upstairs in the bedroom, he'll say "Dada.....Elijah want to go downsense" then I'll say "it's downSTAIRS, not downsense" and of course that only strengthens his determination to say downsense.

He does the same thing with milk.  He knows that it's called milk, but he'll say "Dada I want some moke" and then later say "Dad, babies say MOKE, Elijah say milk".  He also talks about himself a lot in the third person, in case you hadn't noticed.

He'll say other things in babytalk and even does a great fake cry.  Yesterday Gina was sitting with him in the family and asked him to do his fake cry and he did a great one....very believable.
