Tongue Ty'ed

Dear Ty,

Today, you discovered your tongue and you are fascinated by it.  You keep sticking it out, licking your lips, grabbing it and licking your fingers.  You can also flip it upside down, just like Daddy.  Of course this is all very amusing to me and Mom.  It is quite funny to watch.


Prior to this amazing discovery, we've been very entertained by listening to you converse with anything that will listen.  You started off by saying "ba-ba".  I like to take credit for this, because every time we would go change your diaper, I would say to you "bubba-bubba-bubba" and you would start to say very quietly "ba-ba, ba-ba".  You were still trying to figure out how to form words, but then you got the hang of it very quickly and started talking to your toys and General.  Eventually, you started to say "da-da".  Now you hold long conversations with yourself, your toys, General, and me and Mom.  You will definitely be very social, just like your mom and definitely not awkward like someone else you might know.  


You aren't quite mobile yet, but you can easily flip from your back to front.  You no longer sleep on your back.  Within about 2 minutes of going to bed, you are on your tummy asleep.  You are a very good sleeper now!  You also enjoy standing on your own, holding onto something and walking with our help.  I'm willing to guess that you'll be walking around in the next 2 months, then the fun begins!

You are such a joy to be around.  The time we get after work and on the weekends is not enough, but we'll take it.

I love you, buddy!

Love,
Dad
