Micah's First Word

I love to see when something just "clicks" with my kids.  Something happened inside Micah's little noggin this past week.  One day he woke and and just started pointing at things saying "dis."  Sometimes he shakes his finger at something and yells, "Dadada, dis!"  And then sometimes he points and asks, "Dis?"  It's the cutest thing. 

He has also started responding to things we say.  If I ask, "Do you want to read a book?" he will go get a book and bring it to me.  If I ask, "Do you want to take a bath?" he will head to the bathroom.  If I ask, "Does that taste good?" he will say, "Mmmm."  He has started signing for "more" and "drink" when he's eating.  It's crazy to think such a little being can do so many things at just 10 months old. 

But here's the BIGGEST news.  Big news for Mommy and Daddy anyway.  He said his first word!  He said it on Wednesday, but I figured I was just hearing it through "mommy ears."  I got him to repeat it on video, so I played it for Lance hoping he'd make it official.  He was 50/50.  So, I didn't rush to his baby book and write it down.  However, he said it again yesterday, so I've made it official!  Let's see if you can figure out what he's saying..... 

 



Here's a hint: it's something to eat.  Any guesses??
