Many times when I get Evelyn up from her nap, or out of bed in the morning, or just when I enter the room she's in, I say, "Hi, baby!" Lately, whenever it's clear she's talking to me, like when I'm wiping her hands off in her high chair, or she just comes to give me a hug, she says to ME, "Hi, baby!"
I remember when Avery was about this age, she used to say, "Hi, Avey!" to me.
