Berp and Ernie

Calla has been watching Sesame Street every morning with Mommy.  She learned Elmo right away, and started getting excited and saying his name every time she would see him anywhere.  Well, she has Sesame Street characters on her diapers, and since the day she discovered this, she started replacing the previously-used word "diaper" with "Elmo."  She surprised me this week when she named two of the other characters on the diaper.  Bert and Ernie!  Except she is overusing what speech therapists would call the "final p."  This means she is putting the "p" sound at the end of a lot of words.  So, "Bert" sounds like "Berp," which I don't think I am going to encourage her to change for a while!  Too cute!
