Ruby speaks and stands up

Ruby is talking with a purpose. Her first recognizable word is "Dut" which means "Stand up." Some of you may think I'm crazy, but here at home we know it is reproducible, only happens when she stands up or if she hears us say "Stand up," and sounds distinct from the rest of her babytalk.

Also, on video we asked her to say "Mamamama" and she said, "Babababa" with lips rolling outward. (Do you know what I mean by "lips rolling outward"? I couldn't figure on another way to put that.)

Also, we caught her standing up for the first time! This is different from the times we have let go of her hands after making sure she is upright. Those times, it was more akin to standing up an action figure. Today she used her hands to get to an almost upright position, then let go and stood up the rest of the way. She remained standing for several seconds before plopping back down. We caught this on video too!
