Talking Talking Talking!
Last Thursday, B suddenly started saying Da-da.
Since Thursday, he's started waving (and sometimes saying) bye-bye, and saying Maaaa (for his big brother), and uh-oh. All in three days!
B had gotten a little low on the weight chart (he was sick, and then started crawling) so we’ve been feeding him calories galore for the past week—-maybe chubbiness is the key to verbal brilliance!!
At this point (10-11 months) M was about to say his first words (yellow, banana, mama) and then forget them and all other words for another six months. Like his verbal groundhog had seen his shadow and disappeared.
Come to think of it, M was the King of Chub, so that’s a dubious connection. Maybe the key to verbal brilliance is front teeth. B sure has those.
