Are your kids early talkers Tax? I can't believe James says words already. Obviously one of mine due to his disability rarely talks and he'll be 5 in March, but even my talkaholic 6 yr old daughter didn't say a word here or there until after 1, a couple months after 1. Now Jake will be 4 months on Wednesday and he coos and babbles right too you. A new phenomenon to me!
James will be 8 months old on Sunday. Josie was using clear words in phrases at this age (and hasn't shut up since!) The boys don't always talk so early. Tom didn't say anything except "Hi" and "No" until he was almost 2, and then one day started speaking in sentences!
