I received a great email from Signing Time that says that you can get a free digital copy of Signing Time Series 2 Volume 13: Who Has The Frog if you agree to provide them feedback. I thought some of you might want to take advantage of this offer since we all LOVE Signing Time so much!

Miss California
Sweet Pea got a special visit at her center based therapy school today from Miss California! Noelle Freeman was just crowned Miss California in the end of June. Her platform was "A promising future for autism" so that makes sense why she was visiting since many of the kids in Sweet Pea's program have autism.

Grandmother, this post is for you! This card has been the best Halloween present Sweet Pea ever received as it has provided HOURS of entertainment for her. Thank you and I hope you enjoy this video!

Angel Eating...Very Loudly!
Mealtime at our house is far from quiet...I don't understand it, but almost every time we feed Angel she makes a ton of noise when she is swallowing each bite. On top of that she cries for another bite! She is more than a bit impatient it would seem and the 5 seconds it takes to refill the spoon is just too much for her to handle. Here is a little glimpse into some of her mealtime sounds:
While her skills have improved she still seems to forget that her feet don't help during feeding. I'm loving that we are 6 for 6 with foods...she loves cereal, sweet potatoes, peas, pears, bananas and carrots! I'm really hoping her love for all foods is here for life and maybe she can teach her big sister that there is more in life than goldfish.

Two New Spoken Words Today!
I can hardly believe it! If I wasn't there to hear both of these new spoken words today I probably wouldn't believe it! After lunch she was playing with her Daddy doing the See and Learn "More First Words" flashcards and when the bubbles card came up she busted this out...
Then I was playing with her with some toys that her Cousin O and Cousin C decided they were okay with passing down to Sweet Pea and she wanted the box open. I was expecting to hear her say "up" which is her typical sound when she wants something opened. Instead I heard this...
Can you believe it? Two new words in one day? I think she now says: up, Mama, Daddy, ball, dog, more, her sisters name, Grandma, banana, moo, baa, yeah, eat, and now bubbles and open! She is starting to say me, mine, Grandpa, her name, Elmo, I want, and many more that I can't think of. Now her words are not perfect, but we understand her intentions and so I count them.

Wheels on the Bus Video
Sweet Pea was dancing all around when we were singing Wheels on the Bus so I broke out the camera and captured some of her silliness...
