Jaimeson spoke her first word this evening. Or at least her first real attempt at a word. Julia would say "Dada" to her while pointing at me. Jaime would repeat after her "A-da". She said it several times for me too. She was just mimicking the sound we were making, not actually making the connection that it was me she was talking about.
Jordan actually started doing the same thing at about three months (no kidding!) You could say a few words to him and he would do his best to repeat it back to you. It would sound like he was saying what you said, but doing it underwater. Jaimeson's repetition is much more distinct, though she's done it only once.

I asked Lyn today how she deals with it when people remark on how great it is that the new Foresters logo is in the primary colours, and all that represents. I nearly fall over when I hear that. I must look like I'm going to be sick. I want to grab them and shake them. "Don't you get it!", I would scream, "It's not so boorish, or simplistic as that!"
She just smiled and said "It's everybody's brand, and if they make it their own, that's great." I could never be so altruistic about it.
