Well yesterday and today Robert definitely attempted to communicate with us using signs. First, he was getting his diaper changed yesterday, and he started making the motion for 'milk' in sign language. I do this sign and say nurse every time he nurses, and sometimes just before when I think he is getting hungry. Robert has never signed it to me but I knew that eventually he would if I just kept with it. Anyways, he was laying on the changing table and was squeezing his hand. When it finally dawned on me what he was doing I said, "Do you want to nurse?" and did the motion. He got soooo excited and was doing the sign back to me. This was the best feeling in the world for me!!!
The past couple days Robert has been attempting to wave Hi & Bye, and tonight when Grammy was leaving, he waved goodbye to her. His face was lighting up when he was doing it. Another great moment for mommy!!
I already shared that he recently started solid foods, so I figured I would share a few pictures of his first few meals.
'I'm not sure about the texture of this mom.'
'Hmmmm....'
"Oh, yeah! I remember tasting this in mommy's belly. She ate ALOT of this!"
I can't get enough of that face! Even if it is messy.
Yea....I LOVED when he waved....Bye...to me...LOVE HIM.....
