What were your DC's first words?

Inspired by the Toddlerspeak thread on "threads of the day" - tell me your child's first words (am sure it's been done before but humour me).

Here is DD's (13 months today) entire vocabulary, in order of when she learnt them:

Mama (horray!)
Dai (Daddy)
Nana (banana)
Gai (Granny)
Tomblibombliolilio (Tombliboo. Oh dear.)

dd1 = dar (star)
dd4 = Abi (her sister)

the others sadly I can't remember without looking up!

Northerngirldownsouth · 18/07/2009 13:23

ds1 - bye-bye
ds2 - hat

10 week old DGD is just starting to gurgle and repeatedly makes a Grrraanny noise - much to the delight of both her Grannies.

Wigeon · 18/07/2009 14:38

Ahhh - very sweet. I like "star"! Much more creative than mama etc.

Another "hat" here - ds1 (prompted by Dipsy's hat!)
Ds2 - "car"

dc1 ba ra ra (his baby brother, very late talker!)
dc2 duck (9.5 months...) (he already said mama, dada, baba)
dc3 caca (big brother)
dc4 Ba bel (8.5 months... he's only said it twice, perhaps I'm just hoping!!)

posieparkerinChina · 18/07/2009 14:53

that would be his sister.

saintlydamemrsturnip · 18/07/2009 14:59

Mummy (aged 9) we're waiting for the second . But still good choice of fist word.

Actually he did have some at around a year old but he lost them.

saintlydamemrsturnip · 18/07/2009 15:00

rather embarrassingly I can't remember ds2 or ds3's.

Jojay · 18/07/2009 15:03

'Harry' - the cat.

Then Daddy, then Mummy.

Nice to know where I lie in the pecking order in my house

TwoIfBySea · 18/07/2009 15:06

Dts1 aged 10 months - car (pointing to anything with wheels and occasionally me.)

Dts2 when aged 14 months - gabby gab (part of their twin speak, it ended up meaning something they weren't sure of.)

For ages they called everyone dude, male or female.

monkeyfacegrace · 18/07/2009 15:12

My daughter was a late talker, and her first proper word was around 11 months, shoes! Like mother like daughter

thaliablogs · 18/07/2009 15:17

Up! repeated endlessly once she got the hang of it, at about 8 months.

barnsleybelle · 18/07/2009 15:19

daddy
hiya
zak (brother)
book
mummy

Jbck · 18/07/2009 15:23

DD1 - proper clear as a bell word 'Lager' much to her Daddy's delight
DD2 - proper really clear word - hello

bruffin · 18/07/2009 18:30

Ds - Hot ( i wasn't very good a judging the temperature of his food)

DD- shoes

Bleatblurt · 18/07/2009 18:39

DS1- Daddy and Car

DS3- Mummy and Car

I think DS3 might be my favourite.

Wigeon · 18/07/2009 19:06

I like "dude"! Might have to teach DD that!

laptop!

Colonelcupcake · 18/07/2009 19:33

hoo va (hoover)

paranoidpatsy · 18/07/2009 19:42

ds - 'gight' (light)
dd - dar (star)

I honestly don't keep them in a dark cupboard most of the time, with occasional flashes of sunlight ....

Wigeon · 19/07/2009 19:18

Ahh, that's quite romantic actually!

TwoIfBySea · 19/07/2009 20:05

Wigeon, you need to remember to teach her the right pronounciation - not just "dude" but doooood. I don't know where they had gotten it from but once they had that they added words to it - so, for example, when my friend's ds was sad he was "crying dude." And so on.

They still use it sometimes now and they are 7 1/2! Dts2 came home one day talking about the dudes at school.

Noonki · 19/07/2009 20:18

ds1 - Jack (big brother, my DSS)
ds2 - Quack (though told Jack it was him again!)
