Every time Nate wakes up . . . he likes me to sit in the chair in his room and he sits on my lap as he looks at books. After a minute or two, he almost always looks up at me and squeezes his hand over and over signing to me that he wants milk. I ask him, "do you want some milk?" And he nods yes and gets a huge grin. He loves that he can communicate with me and I love it, too.
Don't think this happens with everything but it's nice that he can tell me a few things that he wants. And I love his pure excitement when I can get it for him.
Hooray for sign language.

Daisy loves to tell me she is drinking milk while she is working on her bottle. It is a very handy form of communication.
I love how the boy who wouldn't drink milk at all for you, now requests it.
The girls sign "more" - each in their own way, mackenzie is little more graceful and deliberate, addison a little more hasty.
Regardless as you say, communicating is very rewarding.
Very cool. Nate is such a stud =)
Lauren signing for me makes our lives a lot happier, and I finally got her to sign Please. It's Great.
