I am so glad she has learned these signs that she uses daily. She is completely weened now and it seems this girl is always hungry. Instead of both of us getting frusturated not knowing what she wants, she uses some of her signs and we can usually figure it out quickly. Even daddy's getting the hang of it again. She is always signing eat cheese or eat apple. Sunday after church, not 20 minutes after she had eaten 2 bowls of rice, several green beans and 1/2 a cucumber she started signing she wanted to eat an apple. After eating 1/2 the apple by herself she came up to me and started whining. I asked her what she wanted and she signed, eat -more- apple. This was the 1st time she used 3 signs consecutively. It was almost a complete sentence. WOW! We need to teach her the sign for please.
This morning at breakfast she was chowing down on a bowl of fruit loops. When I was done with my cereal I left my bowl on the table and started to empty the dishwaher. She put some of her cereal in my bowl and was eating out of both bowls using both spoons.
Tina, she is so adorable!! Girls are so fun! :)
ReplyDeleteGeesh, miss piggy! She must be a growing girl!! LOL
ReplyDeleteHow fun! She looks so big. I was given the opportunity to use my sign language with a deaf couple. They were asking questions about Jenna and I could answer them! I was amazed at how much I still remembered. Although when they asked me if I knew sign I sign back "A Little" then tried to say I teach my children and instead I must have said I am a teacher. Woops! Oh well, it has given me the encouragement to learn more!
