My son is in the signing burst stage of baby signing… he can’t get enough. He’s at the point now that when I introduce a sign he can almost immediately reproduce it. He understands that I am teaching him a gesture that will represent something, so when I start signing, he watches and waits to see what I’m saying. Watch this video of Ben signing, he just turned 13 months this week.

I have three kids, so this is my third time personally teaching one of my children sign language and it is still so amazing.  I love the way Ben watches me and smiles with pride when he actively communicates with me. 

Oh yeah, I thought you guys might enjoy watching this fun infomercial that I’m in.  Don’t make fun of me, I was major pregnant with Ben, but it’s fun to watch.

I hope everyone is having as much fun as I am signing with their babies.

Here is little Ben (really should be Big Ben as he is really packing it on) at 7 weeks. Although he isn’t quite ready to begin signing, he is developing well and is giving some of the key indicators that will let me know he is ready: he is starting to make and hold eye contact and he is starting to smile voluntarily.
