Sounds become words.....sort of!

So yesterday Aspen discovered the "d" sound and proceeded to start using it! This was Aspen all day yesterday, "da da da da goooo da goo da" and then by the time Malo got home from work she'd added "Da-deeee." Although I know in my head that she is just discovering sounds, it is very exciting and I maintain she's said her first work, daddy. So I'll just keep believing that! :) Then this morning, I hear her going "dadadadadad DAAAAAAAAAD!!!" I went in to get her and she was SITTING UP in her crib!!! Holy cow!!! So she's pulled herself to sitting in her crib now! It almost made me cry because she has had two BIG grown-up things happen two days in a row now. She's great! :) Then we went in and tried to wake daddy up and she sat next to him on our bed and started yelling, "Da Da Da!" and giving him hugs. Such a big girl! :-)
