First Words

Hmm, long time since the last update. I’ll have to review all the milestones not reported at some point. Perhaps in video form. In any event, Ella uttered her first words last weekend. We had heard one-off utterances, things like “Nana” for banana, variations on “dada” & “mama” applied liberally to either of us but these were the first string of words put together. T had made some pancakes (with vegetables in them, perhaps it was more of a blini? Or a blintz? Feel free to provide guidance here.) and Ella really didn’t want to go into her chair to eat them. There was a bit of to-ing and fro-ing and then the proclamation of “No pancakes!” was made and Tamara & I just looked agog at each other, asking if the other had heard those words strung together.
Needless to say, we didn’t make her eat the pancakes.
