I'll see your "da" and raise you a "dada"!


Yep, it's official...our boys have uttered their first dada's, and the amazing this is that the boys did it 12 hours apart! There was a big dada race going on in our house with a lot of close calls, but Brody is the official winner. Josh might be the big roller, but Brody is without a doubt our big talker :) We thought for a while that Josh might be the dark horse in the race and just up and say dada while Brody has been practicing his da's for a week or so, but Josh let his brother have the first to do award in this category.

And while I am absolutely thrilled with this new found talent, no one could be more proud than their dada. He has been completely beaming since last night at 7:50pm, and the lucky bastard got to experience that rush again this morning from Josh. What a thrill it is to experience such a fantastic milestone!!

Ok boys, now you got the easy word out of the way....start using those new found tongue techniques and start practicing those "mamas" because she will hit the roof if your second word is Lucy!! I didn't carry you for 9 (well 8) months and sit in a hospital bed for 3 weeks for our family pet to become the next part of your new vocabulary!!

Cute! The only thing I've gotten so far is a whiney "maaaaaa" sound out of Marshall.

Way to go boys! I bet daddy is happy, but use it to your advantage Amber. When they call for dada...let him know that they're asking for him! :)
