The day Evan and I had taken off for Utah he had looked at me and said  'ma-ma' – typically when he's rambeling he will repeat the syllabel multiple of time such as  'ma-ma-ma-ma' but he only said it twice. My heart jumped thinking he might have just called me by my name but I didn't want to get my hopes up – could be he was just rambeling in shorter syllabels. 

Well, while we were in Utah – quite often if one of my family members was holding Evan and if I walked out of the room he would get anxious and call out 'ma-ma' – also during the night (we were sleeping in the same room) if he woke up he would stand in the crib, look my direction and call out 'ma-ma'. 

It is incredible to hear my child call out for me – Evan has been practicing his 'da-da' as well but hasn't quite mastered the letter P to say 'pa-pa' – I'm sure it's just a matter of time.
