She said "I Love You"!!!

After strapping her in her car seat, I kissed her on the top of her head and said “I love you, Sophie,” to which she replied “I uve Ooh.” Confirmed, 'cause Mommy heard it. Her first real sentence!

Broke my heart, made me hum happy tunes for the rest of the day. I love my little girl. :love:

That’s so sweet. What a great memory to hold on to! It’s times like these that one wishes there was a camcorder running all the time.

Yes! Congrats on that one…

Soon she’ll be going from sweet little sentences through talking back to winning arguments all the time.:wink:

Then there is my brothers son Teddy, whose first sentence was “Goddamn Volvo.:stuck_out_tongue: :eek: :smack: :rolleyes:

After I finished laughing and peeling myself off the floor when my brother told me, I said to him, "Remember, little pitchers have big ears."

Awww. Congratulations.

Uber-cute!

:smiley:

Awww, that’s the sweetest thing I’ve heard in a long time.

Man, I feel soo much better after reading this; My sons first sentence was “FUCK’N ASSHOLE!”

This after hearing me say it ONCE while I was driving and complaining about another driver that cut me off.

The wife wasn’t happy to say the least. Not exactly a Kodak moment.

One guy told me his parrot learned “Son of a bitch” after hearing only one time! He was scared this was the start of a foul mouth that couldn’t be stopped, but it seems to have forgotten it.

My first word was “Underpants.” Not nearly as glamorous, but it was the start of a long tradition.

Now all of a sudden I actually want kids. My god the potential for hilarity.

How old is Sophie?

19 months.

We also went to the zoo last week (being self-employed, I can take time for the family) and she kept on waving and saying “Hey, baby!” to all the animals. She also saw a chimp and said “It’s a baby!”

So I guess that was technically her first sentence… but in family lore, the “I Love You” will probably be retold. Makes for a better story, you see. :smiley:
