'Actually' returns; other Ivan talk

Actually has made a come back. He's speech is pepper with it. We really hadn't heard actually since last summer, when he first used it.

"I'm busy," Ivan announced, as he was sitting in the chair, doing nothing.

"I'm not talking to you. I'm talking to myself." This is the latest variation on the " I'm not talking to you. I'm talking to dadda."

Ivan calls Andy daddy

"Now I call you Dadddy," Ivan told Andy.

"Last time, I was a baby I used to call you Andy. Allen calls you Dadda. I call you Daddy."

I don't know what prompted this conversation, but Ivan had been calling Andy "Andy" for months. At first it was really cute and funny. But since he never called him daddy or dadda, Andy was beginning to get upset and had started not responding to "Andy" and had started asking Ivan to call him Dadda.
