"We decided not to teach him mom and dad as the first word because we're so competitive with each other," Chigvintsev told US Weekly.
"Nicole said, 'Why don't we teach him to say 'I love you.' He is obviously not saying it in words, but he is [doing], like, the intonation of him saying that…It's the most adorable thing ever."
The American reality show, Dancing with the Stars participant said their baby has started teething.
"He is teething right now, which is tough because he's waking up obviously uncomfortable…Every time I look at him, every time she posts a picture of him, I'm like, 'I can't believe this is still my baby.' It's just ridiculous," he added.
