Chatty Sofia


At our 18 month doctor visit her pediatrician asked me how many words Sofia knew and used. Anyone who is around her enough knows that this is not an easy question to answer since she pretty much knows and uses them all. We counted at 10 months and she was at over 50 , at 12 months it more than doubled. Now she has over 200 and rarely stops talking. She also knows about 150 baby signs which she only uses when she really REALLY needs to get her point across - like um hello perhaps you didn't hear me the first time but I'd really like some more crackers PLEASE. At least she uses please and thank you appropriately. She knows all the names of her closest friends including their moms and some of their dads. She can say the alphabet completely now without any help, count to 15, and to 5 in Spanish. She also knows a handful of songs by heart and has memorized the words to some of her favorite books. All of this is amazing and we have no idea how she got to be so brilliant but we do know that we are in some serious trouble. She already thinks she's smarter than us and she's not even two yet.
