Sometimes in life, it is just a cheerio

I resorted to the old "airplane to the mouth" with cheerios today while sitting in the Dr's office to keep Bear entertained. I also started to make up new ones like, jet and submarine and helo and hot air balloon and got to make up all the cool sounds to go with. After I showed him all the sounds and how they went into his mouth, he wanted to do it himself and that was when the following conversation transpired between us:

Bear eats a cheerio: making the noise of an airplane

Me: "What was that?"

Bear: "Air-ane."

Next cheerio: Makes the noise of the jet

Me: "What was that one?"

Bear: "Jet."

Next cheerio: Makes the noise of the sub

Me: "Well what was that one?"

Bear: "dub."

Next cheerio: Makes the helo sound

Me: "What was that one?"

Bear: "hewo."

Next cheerio: silently puts it in his mouth

Me: "Well that's new, did you make that up yourself? What was that?"

Bear: stopped chewing to look at me very seriously-"cheerio."

After that we resumed the jet, airplane, submarine game. I guess that one cheerio was just a cheerio.
