Chatterbox

This evening you were just full of chatter - it was the first time I had heard you string together the consonants bababababa and mamamamamam - I love it when you get in your talkative moods. You definitely very rarely have any difficulty making your needs known! You are the loudest little baby I have ever heard - we joke all the time that you have never really "cried" per se - you just "yell" whenever you want something. I can't wait until real sentences start coming out!

Five Teeth

The Better to Gnaw You With

So today I noticed - by the expedient of you clamping down hard on my finger and it HURTING like the dickens - that you have FINALLY popped thru one of your top teeth, and a third on the bottom to boot! I tried to get some close up pictures to send off to Daddy. You have been busily gnawing away all week at everything you can haul up to your mouth (blankets, toys, socks spoons, toes, faces...)
