Baby love

Cookies is so stinking cute. We have been teaching her sign language since she was about 6 months old- and even though she has understood for a long time, she only recently started actively using sign.
Her newest signs are "please" and "thank you". For Cookies, "please" involves much more than a simple circle on her chest. She uses both hands and rubs vigerously on her torso, all the while giggling at the thought of getting what she has asked for. "Thank you" has developed into a special blow kiss- it reminds me of someone kissing their fingers and saying "bellicimo". Who knew my daughter was an undercover Italian.
