Chatterbox

Little Bear has been talking a lot more lately. Often, she’ll mix signs and words like she does in the following video with “cook” and “bed.”

And an older one, because I think I forgot to post it earlier….

Enjoy!

Help, I need somebody….

Little Bear signs “help!”

One of her newest signs. It’s not “accurate” but it’s definitely what she means!

(and an old video, that I finally re-uploaded!)

(remember, if you click on it, you can watch it on YouTube in full screen mode)

 

Finally… on video!

This kid has a mind of her own, that’s for sure. It’s taken me a week to get her to a)walk in front of me again, and b)walk in front of a video camera. So it’s not much, but it’s what I have!

“All Done”

Little Bear signing “All Done”

Little Bear has been doing this for awhile but I lost my Flip and couldn’t take a video to prove it. So far she does “more” and “all done” consistently and “milk” occasionally. Oh yeah, she’s pretty good at “no,” too.

Movin’ on up!

 

Learning to stand!

A day in the life…

 

I know, it’s been a long time coming but here it is. One day in our life. Minus some of the crying and fussing because really, who wants to see that in a video?

"More"

"More", originally uploaded by the.three.bears.

Ever since Little Bear was about three months old, I have been signing to her as often as I can remember. Not a lot of signs, just the basics, like milk, more, all done, water, drink, and eat. Anyway, I was doing "more" again at dinner tonight and thinking to myself that she was never going to pick it up and then she looked over.... and signed it right back to me. She's got food in her hand during this video but she did it several more times when I said "more" to her and then a few more times on her own. Like Nana said, "I guess we better step up the signing!"

Sleepy park trip

I took Little Bear to the park this afternoon. She was quite sleepy after a day with Boppa, but she enjoyed it anyway! I also got a chance to practice my (very rough) video editing skills. Enjoy!

Cheese face!

Little Bear hasn’t really met a food she doesn’t like yet, though she’s increasingly getting frustrated with anything pureed. Lately, her favorite has been cheese of any kind. Cheddar and feta are her favorites. Especially now that she has teeth, she’s just been nomming down on solid food like there’s no tomorrow. She’s also been really interested in trying whatever we are having, especially if she has something else in front of her, so lately we’ve just been giving her smaller chunks of our dinner. Tonight I’m trying a video here for the first time… that counts as a picture, doesn’t it?
