Do You Hear What I Hear?

Bry has been working on his babble skillz recently. As in, "Ba ba ba ba ba ba. Pphhhhttt. Ahhhhh!" He only says "ma" when he's crying. Hmmmph. Steve's been putting him on the accelerated program to saying "daddy," coaching him throughout the day and putting a tape recording of "can you say daddy...daaaaddddy" under his crib mattress at night. But so far nada.

Applying some parental creativity to Bry's babblings, however, we've determined with 95% certainty that Bry's vocabulary consists of the following: flower, bologna, hi, bubble wrap, agua, and transcendentalism.

OK, Steve just wants him to say transcendentalism, but he hasn't bit on that yet either. Grandpa E was pretty sure he was saying "grrrrrandpa" by about 3 months of age. I'm betting his first word is going to be either "gentle" (as we say this approximately 40,000 times a day as Bry approaches the kitty) or "food" (because the Bry likes his chow).
