Tiger in Training

Jackson is so smart. He knows so many animal sounds already. What does a monkey say? "Ah-ah." (As in oooo-ooo-ah-ah.) What does a cow say? "Mmmmm." What does a snake say? "Sssss". What does a cat say? "Meeee." What does a duck say? "Ack." What does an elephant say? This one is just a motion where he brings his wrist to his mouth and extends his hand like a trunk. Sometimes he'll even blow some air like he's trying to imitate an elephant's trumpet call. He also does a motion of opening and closing his mouth to imitate a fish.

A couple of weeks ago, Dan started teaching Jackson a new animal. You know we're University of Missouri graduates, and the Mizzou Tigers have a BIG rivalry with the Kansas Jayhawks. So Dan's been teaching Jackson what a Tiger says and what a Jayhawk says. I finally caught it on camera tonight. We're so proud of our Tiger in Training!
