"mama"

My heart absolutely hit the floor this morning...I'm still pinching myself...Sophi was crawling across the floor and she stopped and clearly said, "mama" and kept crawling. I'm not kidding! She didn't look at me, but it was the first time she has made consonant sounds. Both girls say "AAAAAA" a lot, but never a consonant sound. All weekend we've been saying "mamamama" and "dadadada" and "babababa", but we never dreamed she would pick up on it so early. In fact, they've told us not to expect much this early in the process.

I am seriously doing cartwheels through the house! What a blessing. I talk about God "wowing" moments a lot...this was certainly His moment and I am absolutely "wowed"! Thank you!!

The girls enjoy some much needed time off from the processors for bath time!!

The girls used to bang on the keys of the piano a couple of times and then want down. Now, they like to hang around a little bit longer.

We've often joked that their incisions were an early halloween frankenstein costume. It was fitting to get a picture at the zoo this past weekend with their look alikes!

Sophi checks out new sounds outside. Notice her earpiece on her back...we're still trying to figure out how to keep it behind her ear...duct tape anyone?

Thanks, as always, for all of your prayers and support!!!

peace!
