Levi's visit and Avery's signs













Levi Abbate came over today while his mom was with Emma. They had a lot of fun. Avery is now able to interact and play with other children and Levi was perfect. He'll be 2 in October so just old enough to run around but young enough that he's in to similar things. Avery enjoyed following him around the house. I now have visions of what life will be like when Avery can RUN around the house.
They spent a lot of time out playing at the sand/water table so they got a bath when they came in. Too cute!
Levi is such a good kid and Christi is one of my closest friends here. I will be so sad if they have to move soon.

Avery also started signing for different animals. She got a new video while we were home and it actually works. It doesn't hurt that she likes animals so much that she is mesmerized by the DVD. It is the only thing she will truly sit through without moving!
Her monkey sign should be under her armpit but she just hasn't perfected that yet. I was just impressed that she understands the sound for monkey. We see their picture a lot in books but the only sound she hears is my interpretation...
