Last night at dinner time, Ethan looked at us and signed "Eat lunch" - granted he had the wrong time of day, but putting 2 signs together is big stuff! The only other time we've seen him do this was about a year ago and it was pretty hilarious. Rich was shirtless and picked him up. Ethan pointed to his nipple and signed "Dad Milk", a moment I'll never forget!
This morning I picked Ethan up and carried him into the bathroom for some mirror play. He spontaneously leaned in and kissed me on the cheek! He has never done that without being prodded, and even then he will often hold back the lovin'. (He actually did it twice in a row!)
