And the first word is...

So there we were, using our time at a traffic light to admire a dump truck and line of school buses. Lucas used his patented "point n' grunt" technique to have me identify the vehicles, which (like a well-trained daddy) I dutifully did.

As the buses began to cross in front of us, I decided we would count them all. Lucas began pointing at the dump truck while I continued to count buses.

After frantic pointing and grunting, he opened his mouth and shrieked (as only an exasperated 23-month-old boy can), "DUM TRUCK!"

Okay, who had their money on 'Dum Truck' for his first word(s)? Yeah, me neither.

Believe me when I say that we're relieved the winner wasn't "No", "Dammit", or "Poop".
