Dad's not Bubba Anymore!!!

Kyra has finally, officially said a word clearly enough (and knows what it means) to call it her first word. I was really hoping for "Dad for her 1st, or at least Mama, but no, on Friday, she said "DOG". "Dad" on Saturday and now that she's got a couple down, she's decided to start working on "Baby", "Bye Bye", "Hi" and "Yeah". I'm worried that now that she's starting to talk, she may never stop! Her favorites are definitely Dad and dog though. Now if we could just convince her that not everything with four legs is a dog!

Today, she got to stay with us in service at church instead of going to the nursery because it was the kids Christmas program! It was great and she was so good! We sat up in the balcony so she'd be less of a disturbance and she actually watched most of the program and even "sang" along with the kids for a lot of the songs! Her favorite part was at the end when a man was doing a snare drum solo on stage and she was just fascinated. Considering her obsession with percussion instruments and her rapidly developing sense of rythym I'm thinking I may need to invest in some earplugs before our darling girl is old enough to think about joining the school band!
