new word

Mateo recently started saying “Abue” (that’s what we call my mom, short for Abuelita).  Yesterday, he touched my mom’s cheek and said “Abue” at the same time–so sweet!  Now, for Ilya’s sake, I hope Mateo’s next word is papa!

    Miguel and his wife visited us last night with their eight-month old twins, Mandy and Michelle. Miguel confided that earlier in the day he had coaxed “Papa” out of Michelle. Not once, but twice! What’s their secret??

      *sigh* I don’t know! Mateo did say “papa” before he said “mama”, for about a week. But now it’s been around a half a year since the last “papa”…

    Mateo is such a sweetheart!
