I started trying to work with Sean on sign language when he was probably about 8 or 9 months old. I'm not a very patient person so I lost interest in it pretty quickly and didn't continue consistently. Recently I discovered that Sean knew the sign for "more". Its an easy one that I continued to use even after I had kinda given up on sign language. So I've started to work with him on signing again and he's picking it up really well. So far he knows "more", "all done", "food", "book" and "thank you" ...I think that's it. The video below shows some of his signs. He doesn't do the sign for "all done" but I swear he knows it. Its one that we use when he's in the highchair all the time.
Sean and I met Kristen at the Providence Place Mall this afternoon for lunch and a little shopping. For all the local moms Nordstroms is a fabulous place to take your babies. They have a great cafe on the third floor of the mall that is very accommodating for kids and then right across the hall is the restroom complete with a huge plush lounge. Its perfect for nursing, bottle feeding, diaper changing or just taking a breather. In our case it was a perfect place to start winding Sean up. Thanks Kristen!! :)
