Doster's First Words

James and I LOVE waking Doster up in the mornings.  We don't technically "wake him" ; he's usually playing in his crib. But we both really enjoy going to get him, playing with him in his crib for a few minutes, talking, maybe singing a song... all that fun stuff.

One of our favorite parts is seeing what his first word of the day will be.  I always wonder what's been on his little mind while he's waiting on us to come get him. I decided to keep a little diary of his first word of the day.  I may not be able to keep up with it, but I'm going to at least start.





Thursday, 1/1         Paci
Friday, 1/2             Rock (as in, rock me in that rocking chair, parents!)
Saturday, 1/3         Paci
Sunday, 1/4           Monsta' (is in cookie monster)
Monday, 1/5          Go Gabba Gabba (as in the show, Yo Gabba Gabba!)
Tuesday, 1/6         Book
Wedneday, 1/7      Off
Thursday, 1/8        Paci
Friday, 1/9            Dots (my dress had dots all over it, he loves that!)
Saturday, 1/10      Unintelligible
Sunday, 1/11         Ca-fu (careful, he said while falling)
Monday, 1/12        Paci
Tuesday, 1/13       Foxy
Wednesday, 1/14   eat
Thursday, 1/16     Poop
Friday, 1/16          ??
Saturday, 1/17       Mommy
Sunday, 1/18         Book
Monday, 1/19        Mommy
Tuesday, 1/20       Rock
I was out of town on these days-- thanks to James for indulging me and taking notes!
Wednesday,1/21    Wata, Mok (milk), Med'sen  (We were shocked! Didn't even know he knew that word, but he did have a fever!)
Thursday, 1/22      Wash it  (his new favorite thing is asking us to wash his paci)
Friday, 1/23         Sleepy
Saturday, 1/24      I wouldn't even know where to begin on this one.  Doster spent the night in our room for the first time since he was a tiny baby-- he wasn't feeling well at all.  I was far too delirious to know what he said. 
Sunday, 1/25        BaBra (Brighton)
Monday, 1/26      One (as in one paci)
Tuesday, 1/27     Yea Yea (Ran Ran = Aunt Randi)
Wednesday,1/28 Yea Yea again!
Thursday, 1/29    Fix it (foot was out of the footie in the pajama)
Friday, 1/30         Paci
Saturday, 1/31     Book (maybe, I can't really remember-- he asked for a lot of books this morning though)

It was fun keeping up with this for a month, but I don't think I'll be recording the daily first words in the future.  Too much pressure on my over-worked brain to remember and record!

I will still look forward to seeing what Doster has on his little baby-mind every morning.  It truly is one of my favorite parts of mommy-ness.

It's February now as I am about to publish this and I can already tell how much his vocabulary has changed since the beginning of the year!  This month has really been the month of "phrases".  I'll do a blog soon on Doster's greatest hits.
