"Kitty"

Breaking News!
We have a first word...



This just in Jack has said his first word. Yesterday when Monkey walked into the play room Jack said "Keh-keh" and I thought, ''Wow what a coincidence!' Then later that day he did it again. Well this morning he confirmed that he knows that Monkey is his "Keh-keh" because he said it again on her cue!


For the past few weeks he's been saying Ma-ma-ma-ma and Da-da-da-da but because I've never done this parenting thing before I don't count that as 'talking'. I assumed he would wake up one day and say Ma-Ma and I would know he was talking to me and he would reach for me or point to me or something to confirm that we all knew he was saying a 'first word'. Well, since this is my first time at the rodeo I needed something a little more specific than that and Jack delivered!

I was talking to someone today whose kid just said "lights" as a first word...I love these examples of words other than mama and dada! Hooray for Jack!
