****BREAKING NEWS****


I finally said my first word! I had just eaten a delicious lunch and had successfully gotten half of my food all over me, when mom took me to the changing station for a quick clean up. She wiped my face, hands, hair, and then stripped me down to change my clothes. While doing this, she was singing the 'Naked Boy' song...one of my personal favorites, since getting naked is a favorite pastime of mine. Right after she finished saying 'boy', I repeated the word! We had been working on all types of words yesterday...mama and dada, dog, bird & frog (two stuffed animals in my room) and I started forming 'fra' with my mouth last night, so Mom was certain I was almost about to say frog. But then unexpectedly today, I said boy instead! Who knew?? A word we hadn't worked on! I like to be unpredictable...it's more my style...

Mom tried to get me to repeat the word, and I sorta did, along with a bunch of other baby gibberish, so it wasn't as clear as the first time...Maybe later we will try again and get it on video...

Right before lunch, we had just read my book 'Alphabet Animals' that I got for Christmas from Gram and Bobpy...paying attention paid off this time...I usually just want to eat the book...
