With apologies for the sporadic posting, I offer a quick update on our sweet baby . . . In the last couple of days, Owen has started to say “Dada!” with increasing frequency and much jubilation. Some say six month olds aren’t yet able to associate the syllables with the person, but if you could see Owen’s eyes follow his father around the room, you’d have to think he knows exactly what he’s saying, or demanding, as the case may be.
Another first: Owen waved yesterday, as he bid my friend Sarah goodbye. He was so startled by our reactions he may never do it again.
