Why is it that a baby’s first word is usually dada?!?! I’ve never understood it. Baby’s first face they see and voice they hear/recognize are that of his moms. Mom and baby share the first bond. So what’s the deal?!?! Well, it’s taken a while, but the reward was well worth it!!! It came after ball, num num, hot, bath, [ba]nana, dog, and down, but my little Murph is FINALLY saying “Mmmomma.”
