At the advice of another mom, I started a list of Ella's words as she added them to her vocabulary. . . for no other reason than it is fun to see what is important and notable to Ella. She started "(w)oof"ing at about 10 months although it took me a while to know for sure if that is what she was doing. I don't consider that her first word except now she calls a dog a "(w)oof" and a duck a "quack", so I think her animal sounds make it into the count. The list is more or less in order over the last 8 months and much of it would require translation. I know it isn't inclusive either; there are surely one's I'm forgetting (and I'm intentionally leaving off the "uh-huh" accompanied by a head nod I'm pretty sure I heard the other day because I'd like to believe she hasn't learned improper grammar already.)

Loved reading this. All right, Ella!! For a while I was trying to figure out if Ella was going around saying "Rock it!" or something but then remembered about rocking as in a chair or on a horse.
