First Word!

We have speech! Noah said his first recognizable word today - he repeated "cup" after I said it at lunchtime.

Benjamin clearly thinks this is the start of great things... our conversation went like this at lunch:

Me: Here's your cup.
Noah: Cuh!
Me: Did you say cup?
Noah: Cuh!
Me: Wow, good job, Noah! Cup!
Noah: Cuh! Cuh! (clapping)
Benjamin: Yogurt, Noah. Say yogurt! Yay Noah, you said yogurt!

(and a little later)
Benjamin: Noah, say chocolate pudding! Good job, Noah! Chocolate pudding!

Well... he can't quite say "yogurt" or "chocolate pudding" yet. Maybe next week.

Some people don't understand how I can work with lots of really small children all day - and then they have moments like that (that post cracked me up) - and I say, "That's how!"

Thanks for sharing - it is such a treasure to hear your child's first word. I wonder if Noah will say "Toasted Ravioli" or "Croissant" next :)
We have a little bit of snow today in St. Louis and about 40.
Have a good week.
