Signing & language to go along w/ it

I started baby signs w/ Kennedy ever since she was a newborn, but she didn't really pick it up completely until b/w 10-12 mos. old. Therefore, I did baby signs w/ Maddox & Bella ever since they were both 9-10 wks. old as well. They just recently started picking some of it up, however. Very cute!
Signing has always enhanced Kennedy's language, however. She signs along w/ speaking the words & we couldn't be happier a/b it. We're actually working on 2-word combinations right now, & she'll do 2 signs together while saying the 2 word phrases as well. We're really proud of her, & CANNOT believe how big her vocabulary is! She's always been a talker since early-on, but it's just growing by the day now it seems.
Here are a couple of signs that she learned first when she was much younger, "Please" & "More".

SOOOOO glad you are signing with Kennedy! That helps develop her language and brain in many different ways. Plus you can communicate easier with her. I bet both of you get less frusterated. Smart girl! (both of you) :)
