How old was your LO when they first told you that they loved you?

[BiscuitStuffer]

...and without you leading them to say it in any way? ie just came out with it?

dd tells her daddy now without prompting, she is 21 months.
i have to say love you to her and then she says love you too back.
he is favourite

The bedroom routine 'love you' has been since being about to speak.
The spontaneous (sp?) running up to you in the middle of something else to express love was about 2 and a half.
dd2 I think will be later, just because her speech is not as good. At 18 months she does give the most amazing hugs though, and 'cugger' (cuddle) is one of her few words.

Oh, ds said it from 16 months, he says 'wuv woo' and it is lovely, makes my heart melt just to think about it .. He is 20 months now, and he is wise ot the fact it turns dh to mush and now its a constant stream of 'wuv woo's at bedtime once we lay him down - takes ages to get out for all the 'wuv woo' and kisses. oh love him!
