Make It Go!!

We have some more amazing progress here on the moon! We have been working with Desmond on his sign language. He's got the signs for "food" "cup" and "more" pretty much down. We added "go" a few months ago and he FINALLY started signing for "go" on his own! Progress! Here is the video I caught of Des signing "go" the first time:

Because he's signing "go" on his own it means we can start adding in another sign! I think we're going to start pushing "all done". We also had some cards made that have pictures of all the things he does throughout the day; food, drinks, activities, things like that. What they want us to do is to put 2 cards up close to where he can touch one and get him to choose which one he wants. For example, we have a picture of Sesame Street and a picture of his swing. I'll show him the pictures and ask him which one he wants. He's grabbed at the one he wants every time so far! We are still very hopeful that with all of these communication tools combined that our little Des will HOPEFULLY start talking!!
