MERvalous!

There was a time when Titus was very chatty and would talk in his baby language (obviously!) and sing out loud.

We joked that he had a fondness for Cantonese opera.

A few days later he went quiet again, much to our dismay.

Then, two days ago, he got chatty again, babbling "mamama" and "bababa" endlessly. It was so fun to hear him talk.

But the ultimate joy was when he cried out, "Mer mer mer" and pulled desperately at my nursing bra while trying to climb onto me.

That happened just after his evening bath, which usually precedes his final milk feed and bedtime.

Was he trying to say "milk"?!

I sure think so, because he was doing all he could to latch on and when I popped out a boob, he quietened. 

Boy would it be brilliant if he did mean to say "milk". It would show that he recognised his routine and associated the word "milk" with the act of latching on.

Titus is just awesome and I can't wait to hear more words from him!
