What a month this has been. Grandma said the next thing you will be doing is getting on the school bus. Wow, you are changing so quickly.

Mommy couldn’t believe the first time you said “Da”. We were both in the bath and Daddy was just coming back in the house and we could hear you coming up the stairs and as Daddy opened the bathroom door you turned your head to the door and said “Da” looking for him. Then when you finally said “Ma-Ma” I couldn’t believe it. You and Daddy were in the basement playing with Daddy’s golf equipment and when you were finished Daddy brought you upstairs. I was in the kitchen and I could hear you coming up so I said to Daddy “Was Madison playing with your golf stuff” and you couldn’t see me but you said “Ma-Ma” like you were calling me. I couldn’t believe, I called Grandma to tell her, I sent an email out to friends bragging – I was just so excited I couldn’t believe (whether you knew what you were saying or not it didn’t matter).
What a month this has been.
