First Words!

Earlier this week, Corbin said her first words. That's not to say she hasn't been babbling incessantly for these last few months (because seriously, she never shuts up...kinda like her mother, perhaps? Heehee), but she's finally saying words in context.

Surprisingly, they weren't "mama" or "dada" at all!

Her first word is "bye." Complete with a two-handed wave. When she first figured it out, she wouldn't stop saying it for the entire day! If I said, "Bye, bye!" to her, she'd stop whatever she was doing and start whispering (that's what she does when she's really intrigued by something), and then start waving both hands, going "bye, bye, bye, bye..." nonstop. SO STINKING CUTE!

Her next word is "dog." I'm not surprised, considering how much she loves Winston and Madison. They were jumping around and generally being crazy and I started saying, "dog?" and after a few minutes she was repeating the word back to me very clearly. It's so exciting!

I've been trying to get her to say other words, but nothing seems quite as exciting as "bye" (cue two-handed wave) or dog.

OH, AND EXCITMENT...our first Easter is tomorrow, and her birthday in just 8 days!!! I can't wait! Be prepared for an overload of pictures. I've got some good ones of her first self-feeding from this morning, too. She had a baby's favorite...spaghetti! :)
