Squawk Box

No, not the popular show on CNBC, but instead that could be the term to describe Gilbert. Starting over the weekend he began to squawk, screech, etc. He's still working on consonant-vowel sounds, but "Ma" is the go-to sound when he is upset.

Basically, he just calls out her name when he's grumpy, hungry, or in general just in an unpleasant state. Makes Kristen feel good to know that he only calls her name in a time of need!

In addition to his squawking, he has this new sound that is a precursor to a laugh. The sound resembles that of a howler monkey! A deep, throaty sound that builds up into a laugh. We know it is a sound of joy, but not something you'd expect to represent it.
