Babble Boy

Hi again!
It's official: I am talking. Mommy and Daddy were bamboozled into letting me stay up late on Friday night (I turned on the water works and they caved). I decided to reward their good behavior, and with Father's Day around the corner I set my sights on making Daddy smile. While playing and making all kinds of random noises I let out a string of "da da"s. They seemed to like it so much, my pop especially, that I just kept on saying it. It was all I wanted to say...until Saturday. Maybe it was Mom's sweet requests, or possibly I felt like I owed her one for getting up every few hours with me a couple nights ago. I decided to rattle off a bunch of "ma ma"s. Oh, was I in the driver's seat! They both were thrilled. I can officially speak! Here are videos of me saying my two favorite words. Mom shot these when I first figured it out. As the day went on I actually learned to repeat the right one when they would say it first. I'm such a quick learner.

As promised in my last post, below are a few of the pics from the photo shoot that Emerson and I had. I've also added some pictures from my adventures the past week.
Serious and solemn. This one makes Mommy melt.
Cheese ball!

Emerson and I on our best behavior.
Silly boys!
After saying "da da" Friday, Mom thought it would be cute to put me in my AU t-shirt.
Me playing with Bilbo's rings. It's amazing how similar his toys look to mine.
My new facial expression...I have been cracking Mommy up this week by sticking my tongue out like this.
See you next week with highlights from my Daddy's first Father's Day!
