My Wookie

So Eli makes this funny little sound constantly. Kind of like the sound you make when you are learning Spanish and trying to learn how to roll your R's. It's a little different, but you get the idea. Some people say he sounds like an Ewok (from Star Wars) and some people have said he sounds like a Wookie (also from Star Wars). I actually couldn't remember the difference between the 2, but a girl from the mall, who told me she was a Star Wars Fanatic, explained that Chewbaca was a wookie, the fuzzy short guys were Ewok's. She also said that as an avid Star Wars watcher, she could undoubtedly say that he sounds like a Wookie, not an Ewok (no, I did not go up to random people and ask them if the weird noise my son makes reminds them of Star Wars characters - these are all people who have come up to me and told me how much Eli sounds like an Ewok/Wookie). I have not watched Star Wars enough times to know for myself what he sounds like, but if you have a strong opinion on the subject (which, I learned from the lady at the mall, some people do) and have heard Eli's weird Star Wars call, feel free to vote on it.

For your reference - an Ewok

and a Wookie.

Heidi, if you can manage it, I think it would be great if you could put a sound bite on here with the noise Eli makes. That way we could listen and vote!
