"Eeesh!"

Alex does the pointing thing with various sounds repeated. One sound he makes sounds like he's trying to say 'this'. It comes out as 'eesh'. The other sound he makes is like what you're describing your LO makes. It's an 'uhh, uhh' sound. I thought he was doing it only to engage in pointing. I figured that he gets so excited when he learns something new like that, he was only trying to say something while doing it, because that's what he always sees and hears us doing.
