Nnnnana
Such an endearing term for a food greatly loved! Charis loves her bananas these days. She has started eating “real†food cut up in microscopic pieces (okay not quite that tiny but small all the same). When I start preparing her food occasionally she will start saying nnnnana over and over again greatly anticipating the banana that is coming her way. It is pretty cute! I started telling her what food I was giving her and I guess that banana is pretty easy to say especially if you drop the b. She is very passionate about her nnnnanas. She is up to eating about a half of a banana at lunch although eating is loose as I think she mainly does a quick mash with the gums and swallows it pretty much whole. She is enjoying all her “real†food but has taken this strong liking to the nnnnanas. It is a cute thing!
That is amazing that she is really talking! How amazing that she is trying to say bananas! She is so smart.

That’s precious! Is that her first word?

Erin, it is Charis’s first word after DaDa and MaMa. She says byebye also but I am not sure if she knows totally what it means.
