Max has been a chatty little thing for months now. He's convinced that he's telling you all kinds of things and when you ask, "Did you say you wanted ____?", he says "Da!". He is so consistent with that "Da!" that Jared started speaking some other Russian words to him. So far he's not repeating those (sorry Anzhela and Yulia!)...Max is also really good at mastering words that we coach him on-- "Mama", "Daddy", etc. and then looking at us like we're aliens the next day when we ask him to say them again. Apparently, "Mommy / Mama" is a lost word. "Daddy", however, is never far from his lips!
This last week, however, Max had a new milestone. He said his first word without any coaching! Anzhela had gotten Max one of these nifty bubble blowers for his birthday and we keep it in a basket in the boot room with other outdoor toys. When Max saw the toy he said, "Bu-bble". I kind of did a double take and said, "What did you say Max?" He said, "Bu-bble!". So, with Maxi chanting "Bu-bble, bu-bble, bu-bble..." we marched down the stairs to blow some bubbles! It's hard to believe how fast he's changing and growing. He's definitely not my cuddly little baby anymore. He's a big ol' boy and he's ready to tackle the world!
