I noticed yesterday that whenever Daniella talks to Jackson, she speaks in a high pitched tone. I learned in my speech classes that mothers speak in a high pitched sing-songy tone called "motherese" to their babies. I didn't think that my "motherese" was so pronounced that a nine-month old would pick up on it, but I as I was videotaping Dani, I realized my pitch was also notably higher.
