Tripp has been soaking up lots of words recently, and it is pretty clear that he can understand a lot of what we are saying... guess it's time to shelve those 4 letter words for a while.
... But his very first word is the one that he repeats the most often and the one that is the most ironic... Dog. Yep, you heard (read) me. Dog. No, we do not have a dog, but yes, that is his first (audible/understandable) word.
It all started when we were at the lake for his first birthday celebration. Aunt Susu has a new puppy, a Scottish Terrier named Tully. She is as cute as can be, and is a HUGE fan of Tripp and hangs out around his high chair during all meal times. She really scores some good eats there, from hot dogs to blackberries, Tully will eat it all.
So, one time, Tully comes in to see what is on the menu for lunch, and out of no where we hear the sweetest voice say, "Dog?" Not entirely sure that we heard him correctly, I repeated it back to Tripp. Then he repeated it to me again, while pointing to Tully!
So, it goes on record as his very first word. Now, Tripp points to anything that appears remotely canine, and says his very favorite word. Dog.
Have a fabulous weekend!
