My parents spend a lot of time with Fajr, so he is becoming more bilingual by the day. Today I was in my room and realized he was talking in urdu. He calls my dad by the nickname, "Mitthu", which is what my dad calls Fajr as a pet name.
"Mitthu kahan hain?" (we ask him that whenever he starts saying "Mitthu!" after hearing the garage open.)
"Mitthu pappa do. MmmmWAH! MmmmWAH!"
Translated:
"Where's mitthu?"
"Give me a kiss. MmmmmWAH! MmmmmWAH!"
He was willing to talk back and forth with me until I pulled the camera out, at which point he shushed until I put it away.
Then he decided he was done and made a noise which I've always assumed is a garbled green cheek noise, but today realized was him saying "Maryam", one of my sisters' name.
He also has the habit of walking over to the door when he wants to leave, and saying "Come here" in both English and Urdu....guess he's making sure he's getting his point across

The other day, Chika was calling for our mom from the room the birds are kept in. She was being lazy instead of going to where our mom was. Clover started calling our mom along with her. So there were two pairs of voices going,
"Ammmaaaaaaa!"
