9mth DD said 'mama' for the first time today!! I'm so excited can you tell?!! She's been saying dada, gaga, baba, mostly dada, but never an 'm' sound at all. Yay!!!

Congrats I know how that is you just want to shoot dada because you hear it so much. Remember it cause mine said it a few times now she never says it again it is always daddy or timmy or lalalala and 1000 other words but not unless she is telling me no!

I still like hearing that word come from my child's mouth, but the first time is so special.
I was wondering why dada was so important too, but it's just easier for them to say.
It feels pretty good to be "Mama", doesn't it?
