Faith can crawl downstairs now, and off chairs and couches.
1/14 - Faith finally signed milk. She still only does it with prompting, but it's a start.
1/13 - Noah said broccoli with prompting "bwah-kuh-wee"
We've been working hard on /k/ and /g/ in school. On 1/15, he said "gum" correctly and fluidly. This is a major accomplishment! (Normally he leaves the tricky consonants off entirely. When concentrating, he can say the sound with a space before the next sounds, like "c--at". He can do a few sounds like "ca" and "kuh". Then "kuh--t" (cut) but not "cut". So this "gum" was a breakthrough.
Other things Noah says which I think are more normal mistakes are switching some consonants. He says "wordl" for "world" and "mintuh" for "minute".
Some Noah quotes:
1/14 - He crashed when standing on a cchair and leaning over the back. He seemed a bit shaken but did not cry. I asked him if he needed a kiss. The reply: "Superbats always okay when them fall over."
1/16 - At lunch, I asked Faith to "bite down." Noah commented, "Or bite up." Right. Our lower jaws go up when we bite. Why do we call it biting down?

I laughed out loud at the superbats quote. :) And he's right about the biting.
How do your kids think of this stuff? Their briliant, of course.
