As we were traveling back from Tennessee the other night, Russ and Lawson got out of the truck and went inside the gas station. To prevent Emmitt from moving into meltdown mode, I got him out of his seat and held him so that he also got a break from being strapped in.
He was very excited to be out of his seat and as he was standing in my lap with his hands and face on the window, I pointed at Russ in the store and said, "Hey Dad!" and he repeated what I said with, "Hey Dat!"
Of course, I got very excited which caused him to say it over and over again as he banged on the window. It was so cute.
Russ returned to the truck only to find Emmitt refusing to say "Hey Dad!" I am not sure he really believed me until last night. We were outside watching him work on the landscaping when out of the blue, Emmitt shouted, "Hey Dat!" :) It was very exciting for Russ!
He has lots more "talking" to learn, but I'd say those are his first words... wonder what will be next? : )
