First Words

Well, well, well not only do we have a teether and a crawler and a cruiser, but it seems that we have a talker too!  Actually Delphinium has been saying mammamama and dadada for quite a while now, but I've never been sure how much was purposeful and how much was the joy of babbling.  However, with this new word, there can be no doubt.  Our baby now says "teetee" on a regular basis!  No, no she isn't asking for milk.  She says it when she sees the kitties.  Not only that, but she says "meow" to them too!  The meow is much harder to pin down as a word, but she absolutely imitates that high-pitched inflection that we do when we're talking to the cats.  The combination of "teetee meow" is positively the cutest thing on two chubby legs.  I'm sure there will be a day when I wish she would be quieter, but for now I'm loving the new sounds.
