85 Weeks And Counting!
It has now been 85 weeks since The Baby was born. She still has a big personality and she still refuses to say Mama!
This is a condensed list of the other wonderful words The Baby has learned to say this week:
Papa: The Baby now has learned to say Papa (what my kids call their Grandfather). My Dad thought it was hilarious that The Baby learned to say Papa before Mama. In my Dad's defense at least he tried to get the baby to also say Mama. He even lied to me and said he was sure he thought he heard her say Ma.
Butterfly: The Baby loves The Very Hungry Caterpillar book. Why? Well, I can only guess as to why. My hunch is that she relates to the hungry caterpillar's desire to eat small bits of everything in sight. The Baby also likes to nibble her way through the day.
My husband is still trying to get The Baby to say "Hey lady!" Luckily he hasn't had any luck. The Baby is no closer to saying Hey Lady than she was a week ago. This is one time that my husband going on a business trip has worked in my favor. I think 3 days away from the family has thrown him off his game a little.
Despite everything I am still feeling optimistic. Week 86 is going to be the week The Baby says Mama. I know it! I will keep you posted.

I think everyone should state their age in weeks, of course being in my mid 2300's, I'm old enough to be wise yet still young enough to be fun.

This young age is just the right time to begin teaching your child a second language, like Klingon or Ferengi.
