Louisville?

Toots babbles, we know this. He loves to hear himself talk. Sometimes he talks to you, sometimes to himself, other times he's singing. A couple of months ago a select few heard him say "Hi". Sometimes it was at the appropriate time, sometimes not. I think we shook it off as a coincidence and not really a first word.

Last week while at Mimi and Poppy's they swear (including Tata) that he said "That's crap" and "I'm done". I've never heard those phrases in his babble, but they also say he shimmied out of his rocker and held on and walked around it. Video proof people - just like Big Foot, I must see to believe.

Yesterday Tata was over and was talking on the phone as I was feeding Toots. She said something about going to Louisville. Clear as day (okay, well maybe a slightly overcast day) Toots repeated "Luirvle". We both turned to look at him, it was pretty clear he'd repeated her.
So, his first "official" word is going to be Louisville? Not dada or mama? Louisville? Yes, he's been there, once, for an afternoon. He was like 3 months old. It's a great town, but . . . Louisville?
