Tobi is now 23 weeks old and has started to say hello! He will repeat it when we say it to him but is very soft spoken.. He also says what sounds like Hi If not listening you would miss it. For now that is..

I'm sure between him & Echo I am going to be listening to many conversations from the both of them...

AWW, Wow, Chris, that's awesome! I can't WAIT for Maui to start talking clearly enough to REALLY understand. He DOES say "Hello", but it's a struggle still for him to get it out clearly.

Chris it is so exciting, enjoy the simple way they start out trying to say it, all the funny sounds and pronunciation.

Do yourself a favour, and record them, using your voice recorder on your cell.
Many birds are closet speakers.......and say more when no-one else is around.
I bet he is even saying one or two other words you are totally unaware of.



I know how exciting it is when they start saying words, and you not too sure.....
Did you hear him?...... sure I heard him mumble something.........
it sounded like a word.........

Before you know it, many words will be repeated and repeated. There will be so many ohh and ahh, tears of joy, get the wet wipes ready.......................


There will never be peace and quite in your home EVER AGAIN FOREVER

I know what you mean Antoinette!

I used to hear Echo talking when he thought he was alone... I would sit on the steps and listen to him. Now @ 4yrs old he is a chatterbox. Including making fart noises and then saying "Who Farted"

I must admit I'm the one that taught him that..

Well at least he doesn't know any swear words..

Congrats to Tobi! :) I just brought Chia home 2 days ago and she is already trying to say her name and mimicking a clicking sound! It's too cute when they imitate :)

Actually I have a fart machine that was bought as a gag gift years ago. It is so much fun. The day I took it to work (in a nursing home) had to be the best day ever we had at work since at the start of the day I was the only one that knew I had it.. There were way to many victims that day
