Signing

We borrowed some signing videos from a family in our ward and they both have liked watching the videos. We particularly got them for Bailey to improve her speech but she has had no interest in signing. Carter though has picked up the sign for more. I usually have to show him the sign and then he repeats it. I hear that repition is good though.

They are dancers

I love when they dance they always go around in circles. I think they are going to be dancers and singers.

She needs her own vaccum

She thinks she is trying to help out by using her own stroller to vacuum. She is getting so big.



No a common word we hear

Carter as picked up quite a few words over the last six months and one in particular is the word no. He especially likes to say it if he is upset and not getting what he wants.

A song she learned at School


Bailey loves to go and see Kim the student that works with her and Molly the puppet. She learned a song where Molly gets dirty and has to put her clothes in the washer so she is clean again. She can mostly sing the first two sentences without any help. This will actually help her so she cannot only differentiate between being dirty and clean, but so she can eventually help me with Laundry.

Having a good time




It was nice to go and help Christine right after she had Surgery with the kids. They really enjoyed eating their Popsicles and playing outside.

Speech Update

I may sometimes feel like a broken record but she is catching on so fast. I am always amazed to see what she picks when I think she is not getting it, or is not listening. When we got up this morning she said, "Carter is awake." and then she said, "Carter is crying." As the day progressed she told me as she was playing with the her dolls that they needed a nap because they were tired. She also was playing with her Barbie and asked where her glasses were. And when we were in the car on the way to school she said, "I am tired." I am so thrilled to see the progress she has made even within a day or even a week, especially since a couple of months ago she was babbling.
