Say What?!?

Yesterday Mom Mom came to help us pack for our move and something AMAZING happened. Oren, you know, the four month old that this blog is about, mimicked his first words!!! He's been babbling Mama and Dada, and we know he's trying to communicate. But yesterday, he said I LOVE YOU!!!!! Mom Mom was repeating 'I love you' to Oren and he said it back to her in the same tone that she was using. It was precious! When he said it she squealed. When he said it again, she ran into the kitchen and jumped toward me and gave me a hi five! It was the awesomest hi five ever! I ran into the bathroom to tell Robert and he didn't believe me! About the time he rolled his eyes we heard a tiny voice say, "I love you." We were thrilled! Our little boy is so smart and sweet. We are unbelievably blessed!
