Baba is Mama

Today was one of the happiest days of my life for 2 reasons....
#1 was on previous post....Happy Poopy Pants.
#2 is this: Gabe has always had a hard time with saying his 'M's...they come out like 'B's...weird, eh? So he calls the mower a bower and he calls me BaBa. I have really been working on this with him and today I thought maybe I'll try a different octave in speaking it.....hee hee...
So I upped my voice and did it all sing-songey and whadya know? The turkey TOTALLY matches my pitch and the syllables and says Mama alllllllllllllllllllllllll day looooooooong!!!!
I am so very happy. Interesting enough, he never had a problem with his 'D's so he has been saying Daddy for over a year now.....that was a long long wait for me......and so very worth it.

I loved looking at all of the pictures that you posted over the holiday weekend. To answer your question--Matt is 3 years old. He had a pretty bad habit of sucking his thumb.
