Yesterday 3/16, Rian hit another small milestone. Just as we were entering our garage, he pointed to my car and said "Mumma boov", then pointed to Amit's car and said "Daddy boov". For a minute, I just stood there and wondered, wow, did he just say two words together?! Yes he did :-) for the first time, and it happened just too naturally... Sometimes I suspect he must be practicing in his mind, because it came out from his mouth so perfectly...
Since then he's been going crazy about mumma boov. All his toy cars are mumma boov and daddy boov. Today he could identify my car from a bunch of ~10 cars or so. I've also been trying to teach him "I wuv you", and I thought he almost said "wuv you" together today, yet to get that magical string of three words from him.
Gotta make him a Bambaiyya boy right? So we were casually saying "Shanyaa" today, playing with him, kissing/tickling him, and pop comes from his mouth "Shanyaa" with that familiar wide grin which tells us he's so proud he's said a new word.
Oh loooooooooooove this stage of Rian's growth. He's so happy happy all the time since he can communicate what he wants now. Every day is worth those awesome 5 minutes just before bedtime when mommy and daddy just want to cuddle him and whisper sweet nothings into his ears and do naka naka with him and huggie him and kissie him, and he responds back to each and every one of them with more gusto than us... Life in those moments is perfect.
