Gwen started saying "ma-ma" a few days ago.
Before any downers say something, I'm perfectly aware of the fact that she could just be practicing her "M" sounds. But it is a well known fact that babies usually say "da-da" first. The important thing is that she's vocalizing and attempting to imitate sounds she hears. This morning when I got up I heard her playing in her crib, when I started to make noise she got quiet and then she said it... So... I myself am going to continue under the belief that she knows what she is saying, if for no other reason then that it makes her daddy jealous.. =)

Now that she has started to vocalize, it's important for everyone around her to say 'Pop' over and over again until she starts to say it. I'll expect to hear her call out to me at Christmas.
