Nate-isms
Nate’s vocabulary is growing every day but sometimes they don’t quite make it out in an understandable way. Overtime and with lots of questions we have been able to decipher a long list of words. I don’t think we actually knew how many words he knew until we compiled this list.
We will keep it updated as new words come up and his ability to say words more correctly changes.
