I love you!

Here's Natalie trying to sign "I love you". She always tries to sign it back when we sign and say it to her (hold your palm out and put your ring and middle finger down so that the thumb, index and pinky are the only fingers up). Unfortunately, she doesn't have good enough dexterity yet to do it properly, but we know what she's saying, because she gets really excited about it and looks at her fingers while she tries to get them to do what she wants them to do.

She also likes to sign "cracker" (her favorite snack)...I need to learn what "chocolate" is (chocolate pudding is what's all over her face).

Today for the first time I saw her trying to sign "swing". She loves to swing!
