Last night I was feeding you dinner and something cool happened. You were eating Chicken and Rice baby food. You were almost done with the whole jar when I thought you might be thirsty. I have been trying to introduce the sippy cup to you. You seem to like the sippy cups with the soft spout more, because you can bite down on it and the liquid comes out. You don't like the cups that you have to suck on to get stuff to come out. So anyway, I gave you your sippy cup. You took a few sips, then you threw it on the floor and screamed..."ALL DONE!". I couldn't believe it. I asked you, "Lexi, are you all done?" And you shouted again, "ALL DONE!". Both times you did the sign along with the words.
You have been signing "all done" for a couple of weeks now. And I usually sign and ask you if you are all done at the end of each meal. But I did not think that you would pick it up this quickly. I know that you understand the signs for milk, diaper, food, mama and dada because you respond to them when I sign without speaking. But now you are starting to sign back, which is the whole point. And it seems that you are saying more words earlier because of the sign language. Most things are still "dadadada". But you definitely say dada, mama, duck (because of a book we read), hi daddy, and now all done. You have also tried to say doggy many times, but you don't quite have it down yet.
Love Always,
Mommy
