Mia's Developmental Landmark

She added "Car" to her ASL vocabulary today. I was amazed that she communicated using hand and body (swaying) actions with the "broom" sound as we saw a car picture in a book. She was not actively taught the sign although I have shown it to her several times before.

Her ASL vocabulary to date: airplane, banana, bird, car, fish, look, milk, more,

Expressive language: ball (balloon), banana, bike, bird, book, bus, bye-bye, cat, dog, duck, Kai, look, Mamma (shouldn't it be "Mommy"?), truck (All the "B" words except book and bye are said [ba] but consistently used properly.)

She runs! Likes to climb up the couch and on top of the kitchen table. Good forward roll over the head. Likes to feed herself and avoids being fed...
