Cadence does signs for “please” and “bye bye”.  we are working on “more” and all the rest.  I think she’ll pick them up really fast if I do them more.  Training children is so many hours…..so much consistency!  The first time I asked her to say please it took over an hour of her screaming for me to let her have her blanket.  now she does it even when she doesn’t need to.  we need a medium here.   Cadence is also getting a  better idea of speech.  She can just about say “doggy” “daddy” and “diaper”.  her latest phrase sounds like “oh way”.  She says it repetatively in a admiring tone. I don’t know what it means.  We’ve started playing more games besides peek a boo.  She enjoys carboard tube “binoculars” and carboard tube “voice modulators”.  She actually crawled up a whole flight of carpeted steps at my friends house before I knew she left the room!!! I was like “oh man! did you really just do that?”  our little dare devil.  I forgot to mention her completely normal fascination with unrolling the toilet paper. I only let her do it once and that is because I didnt’ know she was doing it.  Now she’s given up on the paper and has moved to banging on the toilet.  So now we keep the cover down.  I’m really getting into the fun stuff now.
