Blabbermouth

Lily has been making so many more noises and sounds the last few weeks and has now said some words!!! She has been making sounds such as babababa, mamamama, and dadadada for awhile now, but never using them in anyway to make me believe they are actually her first words but rather just fun sounds to make. A few days ago she started saying "baabaa" and waving whenever you said "goodbye" to her. Other times she would make other sounds when you said goodbye so I'm not confident that she actually understood what she was saying when she did say it correctly. It has now changed slightly and sounds more like byebye, but still not very clear. Then yesterday I was doing laundry and she was in her excersaucer playing. When I came back into the room and she saw me she very clearly said "mama" with a huge smile on her face! I couldn't get her to repeat it. Then later I went to do something in another room again and when I came back she said it again! Again, I couldn't get her to repeat it. Then today when I was leaving her at my mom's house to go to work I guess she started saying "mama" again. I have not heard it since though. I think she is just going to be one that will only do things on her terms. I believe I may have been like that as a child so I guess it is only fair.
