First word: Dada!

This week, Elaine said her first word!  Of course, she doesn't really know what it means yet, but she not only said it, she has been repeating it over and over again.  That word, is "dada".  Which means dada is absolutely wrapped around Elaine's finger!  It is hard to get on camera because the camera itself distracts her so much from what she is doing but here is a small taste of her new babble.

I also forgot to upload a video from last weekend of her dada playing peekaboo with her from outside the window.  Perhaps I got the biggest charge of anyone here, but usually Elaine shrieks and laughs with delight at her clever dada.

This weekend, Elaine's grandma and grandpa Morse came to visit!  Grandpa had his new camera, so he had fun taking lots of pictures of her.  They enjoyed listening to the babble, watching her roll over, sit up, and eat big girl food!  Seems like there is something new happening with Elaine every single day and we are loving every minute!!
