I set Moxie down in her crib while she was in her happy babbling time and ran off to fold some laundry. From the other room I heard her say "Ahh!" so I called to her that I was coming and a couple seconds later I heard "Ahh!" again, a bit louder. Again, I called out to her that I was coming. This happened a couple more times with her calling out to me and being satisfied by hearing my voice. By the time I went back to her crib, she was making her crabby, I'm about to scream face. As soon as she saw me, her face relaxed and she started babbling, more quietly than she was yelling "Ahh."
It really seemed like communication. She's only five weeks! It's official, she's a genius.

About Me
- Kellie Bonifield
- Supporting characters: Kent, husband extraordinaire with, thankfully, a wonderful set of genes including strong cheekbones and the ability to eat anything and stay slim and muscle-y which has been inherited by... Tallulah, a blond curled, angelic looking four and a half year old with a huge smile and penchant for action. She often, to my dismay, demands to be called a princess-- but only if princesses run, jump, climb trees, defend friends from bullies, and are always right. Moxie, the baby. Organized and schedule oriented, Moxie will be recieving a drool-impervious day planner for her first birthday. She is bemused by her sister's antics and often hums herself to sleep.
