K is one of the most determined little babies I have ever seen. Last Monday (Mar. 16, 2008) K said her first word, which of course was NOT "mama." I was driving home and K was talking to herself in her car seat. I usually have the radio on and as I sing, K adds a few notes here-and-there. Well I can't remember what was playing, but out of no where I heard the faint sound of the word "dada." I thought to myself, "No way, I must be hearing things." So I turned the radio off and listened intently. Sure enough, she said it again, louder and louder every time. I was actually very excited for her. She is growing up so quickly. Here is a short video of her saying...you know..."dada!"
She has also learned how to hold her own bottle. We are still working on "holding it" even when you need to stop drinking for a second to catch your breath, but she pretty much holds it every time. Yay!!!
Since K hates to lay on her stomach, it looks as though our big girl time will be spent practicing on how to walk. She loves to trot around the house with J and I. My favorite moments are when she stops and looks up at me with this huge grin on her face. It's as though we just climbed a mountain together. My heart melts every time!
