Charlotte came over to me tonight and was making her usual whimper/whine/point to let me know she wanted to nurse. I keep making the "milk" sign, trying to encourage her to sign instead of whine, yanno? So today I had her sitting in my lap facing me and I was trying to get her to sign "milk" and I saw her making the sign for "more"!!!
As soon as I said "More? You want more?", she got very excited and made the sign several more times!! Many, many months have gone by since she's attempted to sign, and I would really love her to sign instead of whimpering and whining to get what she wants, so I'm thrilled that she finally seems to be catching on :-)
Now, if she would only try to make the sign for "milk".
