Finally!

After a very long wait, Auden is saying "Ma!" I was in denial for a couple of days when he was sort of just getting the hang of the mmm sound, but it's progressed to a full-on "ma" that's loud and clear. I don't think it's a real word yet (meaning he probably isn't really calling me "ma," just making that sound), but he does say it in a whiny voice when he wants to be picked up--kind of a weird coincidence. Sure. Eric gets the cute, excited "dadada!" I get the sad, plaintive "ma."

Not to be outdone, Logan made a funny remark today:
"Hey mom, my tummy is talkin'."
"Really? What's it saying?"
"Hey, Logan. I want some food!"
Tee hee.
