Tia's Own Language

I am pretty confident that Tia is going to be a talker. I know my Gulledge side of the family are all talkers and of course we all know, I am a talker for sure.  When Chris was little they said he never talked until one day his Grandpa Merli was yelling at him saying 'Say Pa...pa' and if you know Grandpa Merli, he has sort of a raspy, yet very loud voice.  Grandpa Merli kept yelling over and over 'Say Pa-pa....Say Pa-pa...Say Pa-pa'. They said, Chris was huddled under a chair peeking around the leg looking up at him with doe like eyes.  After much persistence on Grandpa Merli's part, Chris screamed 'Paaaaaaa-Paaaaaa' really loud and the story goes...Chris never shut up after that. Sooo, perhaps Tia will get the talker from both sides of us.  Right now, she talks a lot to us and namely when she has her pacifier in her mouth.  It sounds like either the kid from Charlie Brown 'woa-woa-woh' or it sounds like 'shsss ssshhss sshss'...but regardless, it sounds like she is really having a conversation back.  Sometimes it sounds like real words, but of course we still haven't figured out Tia language quite yet.  The girl is super sweet and talkative and I just can't wait to hear what she is trying to say.
