17 month blabbering

Henry has an extensive vocabulary of single words at this point and I would like to remember some of these first words, so here's a partial list. I am certain I can't come up with all of them.

da (dad)
mama (dad or mom)
duhduh (dog)
dodo (also dog)
milk
book
cup
hi
bye
Elmo (we freaking hate this one)
Arlo
nose
eyes
hat
coat
shoes
socks
gama (grandma)
papa (grandpa)
more
day due (thank you)
up
go


The signs he uses are:
more
milk
thank you
please
eat


He understands remarkably complex sentences even if he can't use them himself. I can say "go to your room, get me your socks and bring them to me" and he'll do it. He is obsessed with books and can pick them out based on our description or the title even if, again, he can't say it.

His current favorite book is about the NYC subway and Henry knows most of the words. We currently have it checked out the library and keep renewing it but we've now reached the renewal limit so we're going to have to order it for our little transportation obsessed buddy. Rob and I both love New York and the subway and don't mind this at all. We're invited to a wedding in Brooklyn this summer and if finances allow, we'd love for Henry to really get a chance to "hop, hop, hop to the subway" in real life.
