Your eyes are starting to get more colour. They were that grey-blue that many are born with, but the grey seems to be fading out.
I was worried for a little while that you might inherit eyes like mine - looked it up once, heterochromia can be genetic. Thought maybe even if they weren't entirely different, you could still end up with having a segment of different colour. Not that there's anything wrong with it, but I've always hated the extra attention.
Think it's safe to say that won't be the case. Seems you're likely to have blue eyes like his ['like his' is crossed out]
Your puppy eyes are already powerful enough, we'll be hopeless to resist you now.

You've been babbling for a while now. It's all nonsense baby gibberish. Awful cute though. Nik and Price will sit there giving you undivided attention while you ramble about whatever it is you think you're saying. Look like a group of gossiping old ladies, the lot of you.
But I think you might actually be catching words now. Earlier I came in from the garden, you were in conversation with Price but stopped when you saw me. And when he asked "Who's that then?" (And I've never understood the point of asking children obvious questions but I think I get it now), with the biggest grin you yelled "Pa!" and then proceeded to cackle like a little demon. I've been hearing it all day since. It's a tad annoying but at the same time ridiculously endearing, so I don't really mind.
I think we all better start watching what we say around you, or the next thing we know you'll be crawling around shouting expletives.

Subtitled additional notes regarding dynamic and sex
The notes are formatted as a bullet list.
First point, Alpha females and omega males are identifiable at birth, since they're the only dynamic-sexes that have dual genitalia.
New point, For the others, dynamic remains unknown until adolescence, when they finally present.
Subpoint, Betas typically present earlier, around age 15, while Alphas and Omegas present around 16 or 17 years old.
Subpoint, Delayed presentation can occur for numerous reasons, from delayed puberty to genetic factors to external influences.
Subpoint, Precocious presentation only occurs in those who've had precocious puberty.
New point, Presentation is the part of later puberty that introduces dynamic-specific hormonal changes and results in the maturation of one's dynamic traits.
Subpoint, This involves changes in scent and the final development of one's mating glands.
Subpoint, For Alphas and Omegas, it also includes the onset of estrous and the estrous cycle. While Alpha females do not cycle, they still experience a mild rut during presentation.
Final point, Unpresented is the term generally used when speaking of a child whose dynamic is uncertain. [e.g. "I have two kids, an unpresented boy and an alpha girl."] Occasionally also used to denote young Alphas and Omegas who've yet to experience their first rut or heat, respectively.
