Talkative little babies??

[scorpioscuba]

Just curious how everyone's LO's are doing in babbling and/or talking. They seem to start changing and growing so fast it's hard to keep up with all of their new accomplishments!

DD has been saying "da da" since about 6.5 - 7 months. But on our trip to Seattle last week she finally started saying "ma ma!" (DS said mama first so I guess it's only fair!). Now she constantly babbles mamamamama She also has learned to wave bye bye.

DD2 has been waving hi/bye for a month or so. She said mama and numnum (when she wants more) it's hilarious but she can slow her roll on the growing up thing

Lots of babbling she does mama and dada I am not sure they relate to us or if it's just a sound but maybe she is starting to get it. Sometimes I think so but then I just think it's wishful thinking. She did very clearly say Kiki while looking at the cat though on multiple occasions. So there's that. She goes in spurts of babbling and waving.

I doubt it's wishful thinking! I wasn't sure DD really knew what dada meant either until our trip to Seattle last week. When we FaceTime'd H she immediately started saying "dada dada" when she saw him and hadn't said that all day.

Lots of dadadada, mamamama, and babababa. They don't actually relate to us. He does not wave yet either. There is a lot of happy shrieking.

When he really gets going and has a lot to say, he aggressively pats his stomach. He talks with his hands already

silverspoon I love the idea of littlespoon babbling away patting his belly. Sooo cute.

M babbles constantly. Mostly dadadadadda and some ya thrown in. She doesn't wave yet, and she isn't actually talking about H when she's saying Dadadadadda. She does the happy shrieking, especially when her BFF is here or when S is playing with her, and pats people when she's happy to see them.

K makes lots of sounds, but her go to is da and dada, not necessarily in relation to H. If her big sister comes in the room, she says DA! DA! a bunch of times, really excited. (Big sister's name starts with a C, so da is just an excited sound for her at this point.) She works on the Mmmmm sound for momma, but then just blows a raspberry...

We've been trying some signs with her, and today I couldn't figure out why she was clapping at the table, until I realized she only did it when she was out of cheerios. So, clapping is her version of more. I'm pretty sure about that one.

My baby hits the table when he wants more. We've been working on signs but we're not that consistent. The other day he did sign for nursing though, so that was exciting!

He babbles dada a lot, I don't think it's in relation to H but still cute. No mama yet though. Tonight at dinner I *think* he tried to repeat me when I said apple, but maybe that's just wishful thinking.
