Talking on the phone :)

This is Derek just after his first birthday, already happy to talk on the phone. He still thoroughly enjoys it and has become quite good at chatting as his Nana, Grampa, Uncle Jeremy, and now Auntie Hilary know. When the phone rings his first guess is "Dada?", and he tries to answer it ("Hi, Hi..") when he beats me to the receiver. He knows what button to press to answer and hang up but hasn't quite figured out when to press it yet (thank goodness!)
It is just amazing to hear his vocabulary growing every day! Some of my current favorites are the ones he can't quite pronounce just right, like "Guck" (duck) and "Munna" (banana) but in general he speaks quite clearly :)
