Finally!\u00a0 The little bean has been babbling for quite some time now, and has mastered some the key sounds she’ll need for the chatterbox she’s likely to become – she is my daughter, after all.\u00a0 She was impressing us with how quickly she was running through the consonants and picking up new ones…but for a long time, one important one was missing.\u00a0 M.\u00a0 The critical one for\u00a0learning to say ‘mama’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She had picked up her ‘D’ a couple of months ago and used ‘da da da da da’ all the time.\u00a0 Even when\u00a0I would be secretly saying ‘ma ma ma ma ma’ in her ear, she would respond joyously with ‘da da da da’.\u00a0 Dan was pleased as punch.<\/p>\n

But then this morning, Dan brought her in to wake me up and the first sounds out of her mouth were the long awaited ‘ma ma ma mas’.\u00a0 YAY!\u00a0 By no means do we consider these to be her first words – the dog, cats, lawnmower and lunch have all been called ‘buh buh buh’, ‘da da da’\u00a0and ‘ka ka ka’ for awhile.\u00a0 But I am thrilled that I am finally on equal footing with her dada\u00a0in the race for\u00a0who she actually calls on first.\u00a0 Excellent.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since I can’t have a POTD post without a photo, I thought I’d choose one that shows Jaia in one of the few short moments during the day where she isn’t constantly babbling away…..Enjoy.\u00a0 I know I do.<\/p>\n
