Baby babble

I haven't yet figured out if Alex is talking. He has several "words" that he says on a regular basis, but not necessarily in context. "Dada", "hiiiiii", "nay-nay" and "baba" are the usuals. This week I've heard a few "mama's", but usually directed at the window blinds or a toy. However, he still makes it quite clear what he wants and doesn't want, despite the lack of verbal communication. Smiles, giggles, cries, coos, whinning, shaking his head, and the best... slobbery baby kisses that definitely mean "I love you!".
