Late Breaking News

... This just in ...

Miss T (9.5 months) just said her first word today!!! (Or the first word we understood.) Her first word was...

Wait for it...





.....

Tickle. It comes out more like "ickle," but she's definitely trying to say tickle.

She says it and then tries to tickle herself. And then she giggles.

I don't honestly think she could get any cuter, but chances are she'll soon do something else that will just makes me melt all over again.

Edited to add... And then there was all the cruising around the furniture and standing and letting go of things and balancing for more than 10 seconds at a time tonight. It's like a developmental milestone party over here tonight. It's so much fun to watch, but my baby is growing up so fast. She's closing in on a year and she's much more like a toddler than a new baby now. And I won't have any more babies... I am so glad we got a third baby.

How cute!!! Isn't it wild when the baby starts doing so many things? They go for many months of not doing a whole lot and then BAM--one thing after another!

I can remember Rachel saying "ticka ticka ticka" and trying to tickle herself. WOW! It seems so long ago!
