We went to the Philadelphia Zoo today.

Ronan on rhinos: Dog!
Ronan on goats: dog!
Ronan on petting an actual goat: dogdogdogdogdog!
Ronan on wild dogs: *silence*

Ronan on ducks: DUCKS!
Ronan on an ibis: duck!
Ronan, not looking at bears, but pointing at random ducks: DUCKS!
Ronan at the playground, pointing on a bumblebee bouncer thing: duck!

Ronan on a passing dumptruck: steetah!
Ronan, not looking at monkeys: *points up at barely visible airplane* steetah!
Ronan, looking past prairie dogs at an elevated track and passing SEPTA rail: steetah!

Ronan on a very large hognosed turtle: gape-jawed awe
Ronan on seeing his uncle petting a cockroach: disgust and trepidation
Ronan on chickens: absolute glee

Ronan on the nocturnal animal exhibit: daadee-ee! *paws at my shirt*

It was apparently time to nurse him. Yes, he calls me daddy. *sigh*

(is 'steetah' ronanese for 'streetcar' like I'm guessing? or something else?)

Anything motorized and big gets called steetah. Plains, trains, trucks, busses, ambulances, fire trucks, etc. Helicopters sometimes, too.

Interesting classification system he's got there :-)

Well, at least he seems to divide mammals and birds. It's a start.

I'd only worry if he starts speaking of "kinds". :)

Ronan on seeing his uncle petting a cockroach: disgust and trepidation

That'd be my response, too. Smart kid, I say!

It was odd, though, because my BiL, his GF, and I were all cooing and exclaiming happily as we were petting the adorable madagascar hissing cockroaches. And he was just looking at us like we were nuts.

Oh wow.. he's growing up so damn fast!
