first word!!

Jim, the preschool teachers and I all agree that Jonathan is now saying his first word!!! Sure, he has been babbling like a crazy man for a while and he waves and says "ba-bye" on command. But now he is distinctly putting a meaning with a sound that is recognizable to us. And, sad to say, neither "Mommy" nor "Daddy" made the cut. Not even the "doggie", with whom Jonathan has been enamored for months. What was his first word? "Ball" I guess I'm not really surprised given the number of hours he has chased various balls around our living room...

  3. That's great... Esther said "DA DA" first, despite countless hours of parental encouragement to say her "favorite" parent's name first... Really, who has the milk here? So, I ask "who do you want to change your stinky diaper?" and Essie says "Da Da"!
