Liam's first word


We went to Aspen for the 4th of July and spent Saturday night at the Hotel Jerome. It was so good to get away and to spend time with Liam, just the three of us.
Liam had a blast at the parade and started making fire engine sounds as the trucks went by. That was really the beginning of a weekend of chatter (: He then began Sunday morning to say Maaaa. Then in the car and on our drive home he was on to Maaamaaa. We had 4 hours in the car to practice so I am sure he had enough of me talking. He now is officially saying mama. His first word was spoken on the 5th of July and it was the most precious voice I have heard. Last Monday, the 6th he said daaa and then today we found out he tried to say milk. He is catching on fast and it is so exciting. I hardly even notice Liams "ears" now. The processors are part of him and who he is. It is so exciting to know he will only continue to grow and learn more language.
