My wife was feeding the baby and he turned and looked at me and smiled. I said 'good morning' and he said 'dadadadadada' and this was the first time. No gift could replace this moment for us!!!
That is surely one of the most pleasing noises a person can hear, when their child first says "dadda" or "mamma" and I remember it well! I'll also add the sound of a baby chuckling to the list as a close second.
Jacobson-I completely agree on the baby chuckling! It is so wonderful to hear him laugh and then he just gets going uncontrollably, in turn, has us laughing too! Momma was defiantly, his first word but dadda was his second!
Wow how awesome is that!!! I am pleased to hear your exciting news and also neat that it was on a celebrated day. I missed a lot of firsts with my children due to work, savor these moments!
