Finally!

After months and months of the two of us being Papa and Baba (Picture saying mama with a cold) I was Mama on Monday evening.  She said it a few times while we were playing.  Then, when I was holding her, singing a lullabye she was giving me a hug, she lifted her sleeping head and said "Hi Mama".  She got an extra long lullabye and snuggle that night.  Monday night, we also took her to the park.  I've never seen her so excited to be at the park before.  She had a great time running around going down the slides.  She didn't like it when we told her it was time to go.   Daddy sat her down and explained that she was getting tired, we had to go home, but he'd take her to the park again tomorrow.  She took the news well and walked back to the car with us.  It's so fun to see her try new words and see how much of what we say she's understanding.  I read that when they're this age, if they're focused on it, they can learn a new word as often as every 90 minutes!
