Sophia said "mama" for the first time yesterday. And when I had her show off her new skill to Ed, he said "kiss-kiss mama" and Sophia promptly leaned over to kiss me! She even gave me a big smile after the kiss. My heart just melted.
It's a little weird to be called mama, though, because that is what I call my mom. So I'll still refer to myself as mommy and soon, hopefully, Sophia will learn to call me that instead.
She's getting quite good at going down the stairs sitting down. She still wants to hold my hand as she goes down but she's getting faster. She is walking very well and a lot faster now, she is almost running sometimes. She knows how to knock-knock on doors (well, she knocks on books, walls, etc). And when we ask her where her tongue is, she sticks out her tongue to show us. She also knows where her nose and belly button are. She knows how to turn things on and off, like the fan in her room, the light in the bathroom, and her toy that spits out balls. I say "press the button" and she goes and presses the on/off switch.
It's so fascinating and fun to watch her respond to what we say. She says uh-oh when I say it! We're definitely going to have to start watching what we say around her!
