Children can learn sign language at a very early age.  We have a signing DVD that has taught Isaac a few signs- eat, more, milk, water, cup, plus a few others.  The only sign he really gets is “more.”  When he woke up yesterday morning, he signed “more” and I knew that we usually associate “more” with food.  So I asked him if he wanted to eat (signed “eat”) and he signed back “eat.”  It was a funny moment as we realized that communicating through sign language can be very beneficial in eliminating a lot of frustration.  The hardest part about signing is remembering to do it often, and remembering the signs.

This is a picture from Christmas Eve, and yes, Isaac is picking his nose.  We don’t have the “nice” picture yet without his finger up his nose.  We will work on that. ;)

Kara and Isaac

This is Isaac and his (second) cousin, Kylie.  They were eating crackers in Isaac’s new chair.  Two peas in a pod.
