Isabel’s First Word
In the last few weeks, Isabel has been trying to say her first few words. We heard her say ‘ah-ji! ah-je! deh-di! mam!’ etc.
Sometimes, we thought she said ‘Gu zhe’ (aunty), and sometimes we thought she said ‘Daddy’. But I don’t think she really meant to say those, coz those were not repeated and she didn’t really spead to the persons.
But, last Friday, Sat and Sun, she has been saying ‘Mama!’ repeatedly!
Sat morning when I refused to pick her from her cot, she calls ‘Mama’ a few times’.
And when she said ‘Mama’, she was looking at me.
I want to believe that her first word is ‘Mama’.
Some might argue that she was referring to food (i.e.g mum-mum). But I think no, coz I never refer to food as mum-mum, I used ‘nen-nen’ for milk. So, I still think her first word is ‘Mama’. Hahahah! So happy!



Wow..!! happy for you ..!! chloe first word was daddy.. haha!

She is so cute! wonder when she will call me “ah yi”? When she looked at me last Sunday, she smiles happily! I think she likes me more and more already. ^_^
MamaBok: Isabel also said something like ‘daddy’ before, but seldom repeat. So I’d think her first word is still Mama. Hope it is not me 一相情愿
msau: be patient, Isabel is a bit more 长舌.
Jason: thanks!
aB: you got to make someone (like Ian) to call you frequently in front of Isabel. I think she learnt Mama from Ian!
