Jeanne is quite talkative and tonight she said “Dah-dhy!” and both Michelle and I heard it! She probably doesn’t really mean me by that but it sure made my night!
During dinner, Michelle was giving Jeanne a bit of her favorite orange juice when we heard a tiny tinkling sound. We’re not sure what we heard so we let her drink again, and there was the tinkling sound again! We checked her lower jaw and, with some difficulty, found two teensy weensy teeth just coming out! Jeanne’s first teeth!
Last week, we went swimming but we weren’t able to take videos. Today, we were able to take videos using James’ waterproof Sanyo Xacti videocam.
Michelle’s mom, who has been taking care of Jeanne when Michelle and I are off to work, had to attend another granddaughter’s graduation rites. Unfortunately, Michelle couldn’t take a day off. So it was up to me, the intrepid dad, to take on the daunting task of babysitting for the day.
It started off quite early, Jeanne woke up at around 6 and started talking to us in her baby language. We couldn’t really understand a single thing, of course, but at least we’re communing, if not directly communicating, with her.
