Babbling Bliss

Barclay,
I can't stand it! You are the sweetest, cutest thing I've ever beheld! Today I watched as you inspected everything in our yard and garden. You carefully squatted to pick the tiniest flower and exclaimed "tee tee!" (tree tree!). I literally feel like my heart is going to burst every day with the love I have for you.
Every single day you pick up about 10 new words. I'll try to write them out:
Mama
Dada
Baaaaall (first thing you say when you wake up. You love our pink Yoga Ball)
Dog
Duck
Head
Nose
Belly Button (seriously!)
Diaper
Stinky
Dirty
Tree
Tweet Tweet
Meow
Mouth
Thank you
Please
All Done
Wawa (water)
Baba (bottle...yes you still take a bottle)
Cookie (pronounced tootee)...this is what you use for crackers too.
Baby (probably your favorite word right now)
Jojo (pronounced ti ti. This is what he calls my mom)
Nana (for Banana)
NaaaNaa (for Noah's Mom)
Gigi (for Gracie...my sister)
BA BA for Noah's Dad.

Hi!

You are so bright and just such a joy to watch grow! The part I'm not liking so much about being your Mama is the disciplining. Something I have come to realize has come sooner than I thought it would. But you know what you're doing and I want to raise you to be obedient and respectful.

Tomorrow is Mother's Day and I wouldn't be a mother without you sweet one.

Love Mama

  2. Porter learned "baby" around that age and used it to charm everyone. "Ball, pweese. Baaaaby." Like, "Give me the ball. I'm the cutest one here. What more reason do I need?"

    Barclay is such a sweetheart. And he's so lucky to have you as a mommy! Happy mother's day!
