First Word/First Phrase

Well, after many months of prodding and looking silly, we managed to get Ethan to pipe up for his first real word: dog! Yeah, ma and pa have been part of his vocabulary for many months, but this is the first word that he's come out and fully pronounced. Yesterday, while watching K-9's on cable, Ethan pointed to the TV and said "dog!" several times. Seems he really likes dogs, only slightly influenced, I think, by our two lovable dogs Saki and Kumiko.

Ethan decided to follow up his word with his first phrase: uhh-oh! Just the other day, after dropping his sippy cup, he uttered the phrase, in it's entirety, apparently intending to inform us of his predicament. This after months of him saying "Uhh!" followed by us saying "oh!" in some vein attempt to get him to piece the two words together. What word or phrase will he utter next? Stay tuned!
