Ok folks, it's official....Gavin said his first word! And much to my delight, it was...MAMA! He's been babbling it for a while but we never really felt like he knew what he was saying. But for the past few days he's been looking at me while he says it. So tonight, Christian asked him, "Gavin, where's mama?" Gav looked right at me and said MAMA! It was so incredibly awesome! There really are no better words to hear from your children (until they are 2 and you wish sometimes you didn't have to answer). But honestly, I felt that since Jack's first word was dada, I deserved this one, right?!
Gavin is really starting to identify things....he knows who mama, dada and Jack are, and he can point to jack's cars AND he can point to Elmo in a book. He's a genius! If only his motor skills were as on point. He's still not crawling, but it's not for the lack of effort. The kid really tries hard but he just can't seem to move. I'm hoping by his 9 month birthday I can post that he's finally crawling. I remember Jack being a late bloomer but once he got started he learned it all in flash and was walking by 11 months. Go Gavin Go!
