"They say words, they do!" Cannon, 31, gushed to Us Weekly Saturday at KIIS FM's Jingle Ball in L.A..

So just what are little Moroccan and Monroe saying? "Not too many words," Cannon clarified. "Just mamma, dadda, and babba. That's it!"

"[Fatherhood] has probably made me prioritize my life better," Carey's hubby told Us. "Spend more time on the things that actually matter in the world [rather] than just trying to be too frivolous. [I] know that it's a ticking clock and [my] kids are growing every single day.

Cannon said his family plans on "chillin' [and] relaxin'" this Christmas. "It's the only time we get to relax!"

    lol He is so fool. Its babbling ofc. All babies say things like mamma, dadda, no, baba, etc. And most of the times they dont even really mean to say "mamma" as "mommy". But is still cute. I think tho that they are babbling too late. Babies can 'babble' as early as 3 months.

    @ Anna, I know right? People are SO stupid and want to make such drama out of any little comment. He's a new dad and is just excited so he refers to it as "talking"...grow up people...

    omg you guys. shut up. hes a proud daddy. so what if they arent literally talking.

    It is not normal for a 6 or 7 month old to talk. Babbling yes but not talking.

    @Jan stop picking on them they're proud parents that's all and no Mariah isn't full of herself I should know I've met her. a 6 or 7 month old Saying mama and dada is normal unless theres underlying problems preventing it. let Nick be a proud father he's proven himself a good man and considering Mariah and the twins almost didn't survive her very complicated pregnancy it's all the more reason to celebrate this

    Please,what is that they said was wrong??? Cannon's a Jack ass, and he IS and that would have been different. Mariah is so full of herself and GOD ONLY knows why. And that was my two cents NOt theirs.

    Um Us magazine babies starting to talk at 7 months old when there are no major medical issues preventing it is normal. Nick is just a doting daddy who is very thankful his beautiful children survived their premature birth which they and their mom almost didn't.
