First Words!

Okay, here we go a-bragging.... ;) Every mom does it, right? It is amazing to hear my little guy starting to mimic sounds, and to associate words with objects, animals, or people. So far he says, "dog" "woof-woof" "car" "gimme-that" (more like, "ime-at" lol) "moo" and an urgent blowing sound for "food" (because at mealtimes we always blow on his food because it is too hot, and now he blows on everything that is food, thinking that's what we call it. So cute!) He kind of says "mum" and "dad" but not regularly enough for us to think he knows that is what our "names" are.

Other fun developments: He can wave bye-bye, he brings me his shoes and lifts up one foot for me to put them on. He tries to take off his own clothes when he hears us running the bath water. He waves "bye-bye" runs to the door, and tries to open it when he wants to leave. He "sings" along when I sing him lull-a-byes at night, he just kind of babbles and coos. I love it. He also will grab a book, run over to me, or Wesley, and sit in our lap and open it for us to read to him. *tear* Oh, my baby is growing up so fast...
