DAH DAH!


So, for a while now my sweet girl has been “talking.” Haha Not too surprising considering her Dad can get a brick wall to engage in a conversation. She loves to babble and ooooohhhh. She has started to mimic us, and will happily reply what sounds like “hey” when we say it to her. Listening to her talk to herself has to be the sweetest sounds to wake up too. This happy little girl is so content to just have a conversation with herself, and it brings me so much joy to hear her happy noises.

Recently, she has started adding a “d” sound to those babbles. Naturally the sound that comes out of her mouth is “dah dah.” Ugh. I have to admit it makes me a little sad. Obviously, this is not her first word. She has absolutely no idea what she is saying, but it does sting a little when we finish a long nursing session and she starts babbling “dah dah dah.”

Tyler loves her new skill. He responds to her when she babbles and just eats up her “calling” for him. Unfortunately, his joy at hearing “dah dah” was dampened slightly this morning. At 5:30am she was babbling away, but was getting a little frustrated she was still in the pack n play, so she was getting louder and louder. It wasn’t long before I heard a forceful “DAH DAH DAH.” Haha Don’t worry, I didn’t hesitate. I nudged Tyler and let him know, “She is calling for you, Dad.”  Ahhhhh a little more sleep for me J
