First Words

We have finally figured out that Jared (11 months now!) knows how to say several words. He has been saying Mama and Dada all the time, but he has yet to point to one of us and say the correct word. However, he has been pointing to the bananas in our kitchen and saying "Nana" consistently for a few days now! So we decided that that was his official first word!

He can also say several more words (without being prompted by us!), and he even associates them with the correct object:

cracker (kah-kah)
Jesus (chs)
cheese (chs)
light (dat)

It is fun to figure out his little language. We love him!

Ah, I love those first words! It is so sweet to hear them try to say words! Oh the subtle differences! Kaley was the same way with Jesus and cheese! Too cute!
