Ma Ma

Yesterday, the littlest who just turned eight months today, said my name crystal clearly for the first time. He has said it before; and Da Da too. But those times they could easily have been mistaken for random gobblygook babbling. I mean, I, his mother thought them to be true first spoken 'ma mas' but someone else might have said, "uh no, don't think so". But yesterday? Totally clearly on purpose he said my name. (gush gush lotsa lovey big proud mamma feelings inserted here) My honey had him on his lap facing outward and I walked around the corner and he said it out of the blue, not babbling prior, "Ma Ma" then we all clapped and laughed and smiled when he then said, "Da Da". MORE clapping laughing and generally happiness when the oldest frowned and looked at the ground saying, "How come you don't give me as much attention as you give him?" UH OH. Screeeeeech. Not true! Major attention getter just in the act of what he did, I assured him that was not true and on we moved. He still didn't like that the littlest said it. What? Do you want him to never speak? Silly six year old.

So there you have it, he knows who we are and the first words will ensue. Love it.

Love it.
