The “Lell-a” Conspiracy
So even before Colby has been able to talk, he has been saying his name… well, sort of. He calls himself “Lell-a” mainly because when he was very little I used to make faces at him by sticking in and out my tongue and making kind of a lell-o-lell-o-lell-o sound; Colby would mimic it. So I would say to him, “What does Colby say?” and he would do this thing with his tongue.
So since then he has called himself, “Lell-a”. Even when we try to train him to say “Col” and then “bee” and then “Colby”, he would always repeat back “Lell-a” to us. Well I finally decided I better catch this on tape before he started saying it properly.

And sure enough… this was the last time it appears that he will say it the old “Lell-a” way… in fact… check out this next video. He has never said his name before today and now he’s just crazy with it!
