sentences

ruby went to her 1 year checkup on monday. for those of you who love the stats... she's 78cm =31 inches tall, weighs 9.5 kilos =21 lbs. and her head is just over 46cm. that puts her in the 90th% for height and the 75th% for weight!

she has about 8 words that are identifiable (and a handful more that i cant quite understand yet!). so after we got home from the dr. i was putting her in her crib to see if she could put herself to sleep, she sat up, looked around and asked "woo-woo go?". (woo-woo is her word for all stuffed animals, borrowing it from the name of lucas favorite lovey).. and i was surprised, but really i thought, "nah, she's too young to be constructing sentences yet,... probably just babbled an extra consonant. no need to get excited, mama" and i ended up rocking her to sleep.

but later in the afternoon lucas left the room, and she turned and asked me "wuca go?" (where did "lucas go?") and i about fell over!

that is amazing! cosmo was on the late side with speech, but i have known some girls who were spouting sentances, with fairly good grammer, between a year and 18 months. they each move at their own pace. it must be really interesting with two kids, to see what is similar, and what is different.
