Vocab Test

Today I had lunch with my friends, the other three moms of the Fantastic Four boys.  While we were chatting, one asked me how many words I thought Noah could say right now.  I really had no idea; I guessed about 30.  It got me thinking, so I've decided to make a list of the words and expressions that Noah knows, understands, and uses on a regular basis.  He understands SO MUCH MORE, but these are the ones he uses to speak with right now.
