Oh this girl. She is something else and we just can't get enough.
She has started signing like CRAZY! She probably picked up at least 40 new signs this month. It has really clicked and she uses it a lot. I'm amazed daily at her understanding of things and how she can put the signs with them.
Although she does get a little confused---I asked her if she was thru coughing the other day and she signed dolphin. I guess I don't speak very clearly.
And then any time you say window she signs wind.
My favorite though is one day I told her we were going to see Josh's grandparents, Nana and Poppa, and I look down and she is signing banana. She still signs it anytime she sees her or hears her name.
But she can pretty much communicate and tell us anything she wants/needs and I love it.
She took her dad in her room the other day and came out with this on her head….looking all proud of herself, but oh so serious.

Little smirk
She knows where her tongue is :)
