Ham

I've been calling Elijah, "ham" - you know...a chubby baby, like a pig, because it likes to eat. I've been calling him that for weeks. Dave kept telling me I'm using the word in the wrong context but he could not clearly define it for me. Then he finally looked up the definition: theatrical or melodramatic person; show off. For example, "Don’t be such a ham! Do you really need everyone to be focused on you all the time?". My bad, Elijah, Tiger Mom doesn't understand English slang.

We think this all started when we saw this episode of 30 Rock...
