Ticko!

Ellie is experimenting with consonants. As each of my children has reached the point of discovering their vocal cords they have made their own unique sounds. Joey sounded like a chicken-- bok bok bok. Sam was our little ent, saying hoom hoom. Ellie, more similar in temperment to Joey, likes to say "ticko." It doesn't refer to anything, she is just babbling. "Ticko ticko ticko", she says, and then when you reply with "ticko" she smiles and says it some more.
