Counting

This week Preston has been impressing us with his new skills. He can sing the notes and some of the letters of the ABC's. While at the doctors office the other day I discovered he also knew his numbers, we knew he could count to three but I was counting to him and he filled in the numbers from 4-10 on his own. We will try and get it on camera tomorrow. He also has been saying more and more words each day. His new favorite is oww, he says it when he is hurt and when he is mad he didn't get something!

This evening we discovered he also is quite the teacher. We have been teaching him sign since he was about three months old so he has a large vocab of sign and we use them on a very regular basis. He has a favorite book called 100 first words filled with pictures of common things and he loves to point them out if we ask where one is or he will point to them and sign or say the word. We were sitting on the couch with his book and I had Gracie on my lap, when we would ask him something he was pointing to it using Gracies hand or using her hands to sign it! It was So cute!!
