I appreciate that the last few posts have been a bit whiny so I have some good news...
Emilia said her first recognisable word on Monday.
I woke up on Monday to the sound of babbling at about 0600 on Monday morning and as I was lying there, enjoying how happy she sounded just talking to herself, she said...
"Dada"!
I know it doesn't mean anything - it's just a series of babbling sounds - but it's strangely warming to hear your daughter saying "dada dada dada" as she wakes up in the morning!
(Also Emma is very upset that her first words weren't "Mama" and is jokingly convinced that I have been training her to say Dada for the last month)
Apparently Mama is harder to say that Dada as it uses more muscles in the face
She doesn't associate the word with me and won't say it on cue (so can't put up a video) but she will periodically just incorporate it into "conversation" with you.
Anyway, just a short note so show that I sometimes have good news on the blog and it's not all bad! In fact, the little ups like these really make up for the days of monotony.
Happy Dada!
