Our little conversation

This morning when I came downstairs, you were watching TV.

You called to me, "Mama."
I said, "Yes?"
You pointed at the TV and said, "uh."
I said, "Are you watching TV?"
You said, in your adorable way, "Yeah!"
I said, "What are you watching?"
You said, "Go Diego Go."
I said, "That's great!"
You said, "Yeah!"

Call me a sappy Mom, but that was our first little conversation! Many more conversations to come! I love you, son!

First Two-word Phrase

Today we were playing out in the backyard. All the usuals - hitting the ball off the T, dunking baskets in the hoop, and bubbles, of course. When the bubbles were all gone, I announced they were all gone and to say, "Bye bye." You said, "Bye bye bubba." Your first two-word phrase! Way to go little buddy!

By the way, here's the list of words/sounds you are saying right now (at 21 months):
Daddy
Nahnee (for any adult caretaker)
Mama
Kitty (keekee)
Yeah (emphatically)
Go Diego Go
Please (eeeeeze)
Tons of animal sounds - cow, sheep, cat (your meow is very cute), dog (woof woof), duck, chicken/rooster, frog, and elephant (you've been doing the elephant one for months!)
Vroom, vroom for cars and trucks
Wee-ooo, wee-ooo for sirens
Cheese (for taking pictures, not the food)
Binky
Ball

You'll be talking up a storm in no time!

Mama

So, ever since you've been calling other people by names (mostly all adult males are Dah-tee ad females are Nah-nee), I've been either Dah-tee or Nah-nee. But, this morning, when you and Daddy were waiting in the car for me to pick up some children's Tylenol (for the high fever you had from the Croup - that's a whole other story...ask me about that one), you saw me coming out of the store and exclaimed, "Mama!" As far as I can tell, I'm the only one you call Mama. Yay! My sweet little boy!
