First Sign!

I've been signing with Addison since she was three months. Signs such as milk, all done/finished, more, water, book, etc. Low and behold, tonight at dinner she signed "more!" I wasn't sure if she was really signing, because the sign for more might come across as clapping at first. But as she continued to do it, I'm pretty sure she was asking for more! To be sure, I said and signed "All done?" and I started to take away the bowl of yogurt. The look on her face, plus the slapping of her hands together told me, "No, Mommy! I want MORE!" I called Chris over and he watched and she continued to sign MORE! We learned in our parent baby class that around nine months is typically the time when we might see her first sign. All the months of relentless signing is paying off!
I wonder when she will start to understand the Croatian words I'm throwing in every once in awhile... ;)
(Cousin Sanja, I'm sure you're laughing right now!)
