Small breakthroughs make me happy...

We started teaching Ezra some simple sign language signs when he was around 7 months old...and have been working on it and working on it...and working on it some more...

8months passed, 9 months passed, 10 months passed, 11 months passed, 1st birthday...

still no progress...

(I know you aren't supposed to compare your children...but it is hard when Ella was signing proficiently at this time and it was wonderful to be able to communicate with her beyond her limited verbal vocabulary.)

Then...

Yesterday, something must have finally clicked because he started doing "all done" and "more" !

You know, it took Zeke much longer to catch on to the sign language too! Maybe it is a boy thing=)

It is a boy thing.. boys mature verbally later than girls. Girls brains are wired to be verbal.. so language skills usually come sooner to girls. Boys develope later in that area. No matter though he still is a sweetie when it comes to communicating his easy,laid back personality.
