We are getting some serious babbling at 13 months, and have maybe two words, shoe, and dog, but others come and go depending on what we are talking about. I know he recognises lots of words and will imitate me with things that generally sound like what I say, but I have no consistency. Even with mum and dad...... I am not worried, as DS is so focused on physical, I know words will come in their own time.

ETA - sorry we are EXCELLENT with Ta. I forgot that one. He is very polite....
