We were downstairs on the couch and I was halfway paying attention to her "gibberish" while she played with blocks.
And then I heard it.
Olivia: "Mama."
Me: "WHAT???"
Olivia: "Mama."
Me: *shrieking* "YES! That's right! MAMA! Ohmygosh Olivia! That's right! Mama!!!"
Olivia: "MAMA!" smiles.
I've waited 17 looooong months to hear "Mama." Of course, she's mastered every word BUT Mama, such as "Daddy, Kitty and Hi."
Good things come to those who wait, I guess. I like that she waited until Mothers Day week to spout out "Mama." Best gift ever.

What a sweet sweet sweet gift! Don't you just love it!? Way to go Olivia!! This summer we have to have a play date ok. Seriously.
Hi Sarah,
That is wonderful news! It must have been an incredible moment. Olivia is adorable - I loved the flower video - and it sounds like you are doing an awesome job with her. I hope and pray that things just keep getting easier and better for you two. I love listening to your show, and I love your blog. Happy Mother's Day!
All the best,
Chelsea
