oh, i know! isn't the coolest thing - one of my favorite things about babyhood. the other night when DH was giving the baby a bath she was talking up a storm, and it was extra adorable because he was acting as if they were having a little conversation... "are you ready for me to scrub your head now?" "gurgle, coo, aaaaahhh" "oh, OK, then - we can do your feet first." it was seriously the cutest thing ever.
Gus is a "talker"! He carries on all the time and I just eat it up.

We do this all the time! I get so wrapped up in what he'll "say" next... Time just gets away.
Raina isn't the biggest babbler in the world, but at least a few times a day I can get some gurlges and cooing out of her, and she lets out lots of happy sighs while she's sleeping.
I love this stage, too! DS coos, goos, boos, maaas, brrrs, ahhhs, gurgles, sticks out his tongue, and makes spit bubbles. He even started laughing this week!
My little dude is such a FLIRT. Cracks me up. Grins, flails and kicks, cackles like it's the most hilarious thing on earth. We've mastered "nnnGUH!", "ooooooh!", "heeeya!", "hurrp" and a variety of interspersed clicks that sound a bit like the !kung language, lol. He has a very distinct sound he makes when he is done nursing, does not want to sleep and wants to get up to play. If he makes that at 5 am I know there's no hope, I just get up with him.
My older kids just love making Christian smile and babble. They already interpret what he's "saying." To them, he already has said "glad," "good," "love" and "agua." LOL!
I can't wait for the laughing! He almost did it the other day. Kinda "heh heh." Have you ever watched the baby belly laugh montages on YouTube? LOVE IT!
this one i have here is a big time grunter. he's always doing sign language, and making these intensely expressive faces, from full-face grins, to full face scowls (think, full drawn brows like Ice Cube ) and his 'words' are things like uuurrhrl and oooaarhh and gneeiih.
