Today we witnessed the growth in Declan's communication. Ever since his first month Declan has had a specific means of communicating hunger. Declan continues to let us know with his "Hi hi hi I I I" sounds that he is hungry. What we noticed today though was that he is learning to communicate with you and not simply at you. Daddy has been trying to get Declan to imitate his "ewe" sound and we've watched him work really hard to do it, that is, when he can stop himself from smiling and pucker his lips long enough to try.
There was a moment where Declan was watching tv with his Auntie T and you could see his brow scrunch up while he listened to one character talking and when she finished his expression changed to delight and he started chatting. It is a lot of fun watching him react to the world he is discovering.
Declan has also been going to bed for a week without being swaddled.
Oh...and he got the cutest little sandles today.
