Mum, Mum, Mum

My wife has been very jealous that the baby looks exactly like me every since he was born. People would stop and ask her if he was indeed hers. Well, now she has one up on me. She got the first word.

Yesterday morning Daniel began babbling blah, blah, da, blah… it was like a light switch had went off and he had always been able to do it. Both the wife and I sat for a good half an hour listening to him ramble on before we said anything to each other for fear he would stop. He now goes on non-stop babbling in his baby language. We couldn’t tell what he was saying.

This morning after we both thought we had had our suprise of the weekend Daniel said Momma. I was washing bottles and the wife was sitting on the couch watching Daniel play in his MacDaddy walker and I guess he was ready to get out because he babbled a few times Mum, Mum, Mum and when she didn’t jump up to get him he shouted Mommy, plain as day. We both rushed to get him and snuggle him up but I must admit now I am the one who is jealous as he has been calling for Mommy all day and hasn’t peeped Da’Da or Daddy once :@

Theres always tomorrow and I know it won’t be long now.
