A Very Disappointing Conversation

Me (pointing at V.): Who's that?
The Wibbles: Dada!
Me & V: Oh my goodness, you're so smart!
Me (pointing at myself, desperately hoping that he can also say Mama): Who's this?
The Wibbles: Dada!
V: No, that's Mommy! Who's that?
The Wibbles: Dada!
V: Oh well, I guess he means "parent" when he says that.
Me (pointing at the coffee table): What's that?
The Wibbles: Dada!
V: Okay, I'm just going to pretend that didn't happen.
