You are generally working on a couple different words at a time and saying them almost over and over. My favorite was the few days you just said "wow" almost nonstop.
Sometimes a word goes to the back of the queue and we don't hear it for a while. Like, right now, you aren't saying daddy often, but if we say the word, you look right at him and maybe wave.
But notice anything missing?
That's right. Absolutely no mama. You don't even point to me when we say it.
That is up until yesterday when you started saying it (and here's the clincher) every time you see a ... button or snap. What?

There are other words you don't say but obviously recognize and understand, such as fish, ladybug, octopus, banana, bubbles, bath, teeth, book, raisin - actually, there are a lot of these and you clearly understand a lot more than you say. You will point out these items if we ask you to and look around for them if we mention something you are interested in (aka strawberries).
You are also following simple commands such as "say hi," "wave bye bye," "give me a kiss," "find the ball," etc. It is truly amazing to see the gears turning and realize that you have beensoaking up a lot of what we have been saying this whole time.

I guess it's because I've been saying it and pointing to my shirt.
On one hand, it's great to finally hear you say it and it sounds so sweet (*melt*). On the oher hand, I'm a little insulted that you've figured out the concept of a bathroom but can't verbalize the person who GAVE YOU LIFE.

Oh well. Those chubby cheeks are impossible to be mad at. It really is a good thing that you are adorable.
Love,
"mama"
