The big event- THE FIRST WORD.It started a few weeks ago when Addie seemed to make the "da da da" sound at appropriate times, but we weren't convinced. Then, while looking at a picture of Greg, she put her finger on his face, looked at me, and clearly said "Da da!" A few days later, when Greg got home from work and came around the corner, Addie jumped up and down and yelled "Da da!" Now she says it all the time- when she sees him or his picture (and sometimes at other people that she really likes).
A few days later, she said mama twice, but hasn't done it since.
Addie has also started signing her first words. She signs "all done" and "more" very well. Sometimes she understands what she is saying, sometimes she just likes to do it and watch
her parents get all excited. Even though it isn't completely consistent yet, it is so nice to have her tell us when she is done eating, instead of starting to whine and scream.(This is her signing more)
Let the talking begin!
