Double DewDewDew

I’ve been wanting to write about Ruby’s language development and quote some of our more enlightening conversations. But as her vocabulary surpasses her brain-to-tongue synapses, it’s become exceedingly difficult to convey the nuance of her lisp or her many dropped syllables without offering parenthetic interpretation. Fortunately, she gave a lovely little performance for me tonight after dinner. But this girl is no circus animal: She will not perform on command. She’ll do what she wants to do when she wants to do it. I have no idea where she gets it.

    Oh my fucking goodness. I can’t wait to show the kids. Just last night Supergirl was telling me she missed Ruby. She also said Ruby’s hair was cooler than hers.

    You hanging in there?

    Awesome.

    June! July!

  • Jennifer Summer says:

    So awesome. My son has made me let him watch Ruby’s video about six times in a row already! xo

  • Gretchen aka mamagigi says:

    Showed it to Maeve, who was beaming the entire time. When it ended, she got all sad and asked “What happen?”

    She wanted to sing again with her.

    And the double dewdewdew is friggin’ awesome.

  • Deb Abramson says:

    Totally adorable! My youngest, who is two, has a bit of a lisp. And even though I guess it qualifies as a “speech impediment,” I find myself hoping it becomes stronger. She’s also my only thumb sucker; I wonder if there’s a connection. Does Ruby suck her thumb?

  • Melanie says:

    I love it so much! She rocks! I have to go watch it one more time. I just want to smooch on that little face!

  • suela says:

    Laugh out loud cuteness! Just what I needed! Reminded me of a recording we did of Steve at about that age. He couldn’t get N in there. Ruby’s version is precious!

  • Pam says:

    Too sweet! I cried tears of happiness, laughter and disblief that our tiny little Rooby Dooby already knows her ABC’s.

    Cherish the “double dewdewdew’s” while they last. I wept a tiny tear of sadness yesterday when V told us her favorite color was “yellow,” not “lellow.”

    Apparently I cry a lot. Who knew?

  • Julie says:

    She is absolutely beautiful. :-)

  • Anna says:

    this might be the cutest thing I’ve seen. ever.

    She is so adorable!

  • the artist says:

    dear god, that’s adorable. Double dewdewdew is of COURSE how you pronounce W! Love it, love her.len

  • Your Fairy Godmother says:

    The best thing everever ever – better than my 3-week vacation. Ruby es la reina de ABC’s, xoxo, YFGM

  • Leepak Hope-ra says:

    I am so in love with this child that I can hardly stand it! She is a star! An absolutely loving and shining star! Double dew dew dew! Music to my ears! Its so good to put a voice to that adorable face! :o )

  • Angel says:

    oh my gosh! how amazing is it to actually hear her speak-all the photos i’ve seen don’t do her justice!

  • Oh my goodness, this was so awesomely cute. “Double-doobee-doo.” LOL. Thanks for posting this. It was really nice to hear ya’ll voices as well. Yours sounded slightly more youthful(?) than I imagined, but Sam’s sounded exactly how I thought. Weird.
