Is there anything cuter than toddler talk?

Each phase of a young child’s life comes with it’s own perks and milestones. Some moms love that snuggly, infant stage where they just want to be held and sleep for hours at a time. Others prefer the toddler phase, when kids are more interactive and talking and running everywhere. Chrissy Teigen is the latter, and her latest Instagram video of daughter Luna shows why.

In the video, we hear 18-month-old Luna talking and hamming it up like a pro. Be warned, viewing said video may cause spontaneous combustion of one or both ovaries.

“I am living for this age. Give me all the 18-month-olds,” Teigen captioned. Little smart-as-a-whip Luna can be heard saying anything from “Paul” to “Christine” and OMG, it’s the cutest damn thing we’ve seen in awhile. It’s so much fun making them say whatever you want when they’re too young to understand what they’re talking about.

Teigen is always open and candid when it comes to her life as a mom, which is just one of the million reasons we all love her so much. Earlier this year, she penned an open letter about her seeking treatment for postpartum depression and anxiety.

“I was so tired of being in pain,” she wrote. “Of sleeping on the couch. Of waking up throughout the night. Of throwing up. Of taking things out on the wrong people. Of not enjoying life… My doctor pulled out a book and started listing symptoms. And I was like, ‘Yep, yep, yep.’ I got my diagnosis: postpartum depression and anxiety.”

Personally, I can relate to the postpartum anxiety struggle for sure. And for me, the newborn/early infant phases of life had a lot to do with that. I’m much calmer and confident now that my daughter is two. I, much like Teigen, am living for this age.
