Lyla is starting to goo, gurgle, and grunt more frequently, so Julie and I are teaching her about conversations. We read that it's better not to talk at babies; rather, you should wait for them to say something before you reply, and then it's their turn, etc.

"Ah-gooooo."

"You like the San Diego Chargers?"

"Unh. Ahhhnh."

"But they were 8-8."

"Ahhh waaAAAAAAH."

"Yes, they beat the Colts. You think they'll beet the Steelers?"

"GOOOOOOO-waaa."

"Yeah, I'm not so sure either."

"Mwwaaaaaah! WAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

"Okay, you're hungry now."

"Eh eh eh goo."

"Oh, you pooped your pants?"

"Ahh eh uhh."

"You're hungry AND you pooped your pants."

"EH EH!"

"And you want your mother to change you and feed you."

"WAAAH."

"And Daddy gets to play video games."

"Goo."
