Who's Your Momma?

It seems that Truman definitely knows the answer to this one.  For about 4 weeks now, he has been making this "ma"-like noise when he gets very desperate for food.  Today, the word "mama" actually came out of his mouth.  I know he's only 5 months, and you probably think I'm crazy but James can back me up on this one (except for the "mama" part since he's out of town).  I ran over to see him since he kind of caught me off guard, and he gave me an open-mouthed smile.  It still melts my heart when I know my kids are happy to see me.

I thought I would get this "first word" down in writing since JJ started saying "mama" at 6 months, but I never wrote down the date.  I must say that I'm a bit surprised that Amelia was not the first to utter a word.  I was certain she would be first.  That just goes to show you that your children will never stop surprising you.

Must be nice having someone excited to see you...I should get a dog. Ha ha, I hope all is well.

Surrrrrre. I leave town for the first time in a year and all of a sudden Truman is saying "mama." I don't think so!

Aah. . .lovely to have the support of my husband. Remember that I know where you live, and right now, room & board are free.
