We have a winner!

After months of "talking", David has yet to utter a multi-syllable, actual discernibly English, word. That is, until this evening.

Don't get me wrong, we are very proud of the way he is developing communication skills, trying to get across his message as best he can and announcing proudly those things he has words for, like "ball", "dog", "please", and the newest one, "light". But, let's face it, unless you know him well it is unlikely that you would understand much of anything he says outside the usual "Mommy" and "Daddy".

Back to the subject at hand. His first multi-syllable word. Here's a little hint.

Yes, folks... "cookie". And he repeated it to Cory multiple times, pointing to the pile of chocolate chip cookies on the kitchen counter, one of which he was hoping to devour.

We were so proud, we couldn't say no now, could we? :)
