Emma is really interested in learning her body parts. She now can point out and name the following:
Hair
Eyes
Nose
Mouth
Ears
Belly
Armpit
Knees
Feet
Toes
Leg
Butt
She continues to do really well with her sign language:
Drink
Please
Asleep
Play
All Done
More
Mommy
Daddy
Bath
No (by shaking her finger back and forth)
and she is now learning to sign I love you (she signs love but doesn't say it while signing, and signs you while saying it. she skips the I part still)
Her speech seems to be multiplying by the day. She says so much now I can't even keep track of it all. She is using sentences such as "I want drink please" She is so full of love and happiness, making her a pure pleasure to be around for everyone who meets her.
Her comprehension is amazing too. I say things to her I don't really expect her to understand - just talking to her - but she gets it! Today we were in the pool and her hair was messy so Dave said jokingly "Fix your hair Emma" well... she did! she used the water in the pool and pet her hair to get it to go the right away again. I tell her to walk slowly when she is running and she listens. It's really amazing what a little sponge for knowledge she is!
Here are some of her signing videos, though they don't do her signing justice! The first one is her pointing out some body parts:
dada:
i want sleep:
eat:
drink please:
i want more: (signing not to good on this one, she signs I want, then says more but doesnt sign more)
and this is why I can't leave Lincoln unattended! Emma thinks she is a little mommy!

That is so sweet! She is growing so fast. I think it is neat how much she is learning. It seems like she knows more body parts that Buddy does.
She's doing awesome! lol I laughed at the armpit part, that's awesome she knew where it was! I love the video of her and her baby brother...she's going to be an awesome big sister!
