Mama and Dada

Everyone says that you love every stage your kid goes through, which I think is quite true, but this is definitely one of our favorites. Benjamin is almost sixteen months old and has been so much fun lately. He's active, social, full of smiles and cute noises, and has been giving us lots of hugs! He's been saying mama for a while as well as following commands and understanding just about everything we say. But he just started saying dada about a week ago (and is working on "ball") and it's adorable! He'll look at each of us and correctly say mama or dada. Or he'll look at a picture and identify who is in it. He loves saying it, and we love hearing it!
