He might know more... but the occasion hasn't come up... he watches signing time more than I do, so today I was surprised when they said "Game" and he signed game. I didn't even know that was the sign for game. Anyways he is speeding along.
Signs he made up?:
(they all have accompanying noises except the egg whisk one)
"up"
"blow nose"
"I want to get down"
"fall down, drop"
"use the egg beater"
"washing machine"
"make coffee" (I have a loud espresso machine)
"stop!" (hand out)
He still hasn't started to really put two words together. But as the home study lady said, he is really easy to understand and really communicative. Really determined. ;D
That's all I can think of for now.
That is wonderful!!! He is progressing so well:) Good job mommy!
