First Word

Finally we have a real word! It's so exciting and heart melting!

For those who have seen Ryan eat, it's no surprise that his first "real" word is related to food. And for those who have seen Ryan eat a banana, you will certainly not be surprised that his first word is exactly that! "Nana". . . . it's simply heart melting. Every morning, we bring Ryan downstairs for breakfast, he raises his arms up to the counter where we keep the fruit and says, "nana". We try to diversify his diet, but how can you say no. At least he's not asking for cake, right? So, every day he eats at least one "nana". . . and there are many days where Ryan eats more that one "nana"!

Speaking of food, here are Ryan's current favorites:
- "nanas"
- tangerines (my grandpa would be so happy)
- strawberries (are you sensing a theme here?)
- cheerios
- wheat crackers (aka: "cookies")
- pumpkin (gross)
- peas
- yogurt
- cheese
- cauliflower (just like his mom!)
- chicken
