i {love} you

Our little Elsie has been working on her 'I love you' sign for a very long time now.
Every time we would say "I love you", she would stick her hand up...thumb and pointer out...and with her other hand hold up her pinky....so cute. Then one night we noticed as she was pointing to the fridge for more milk that she was pointing with her left hand in the 'i love you' sign.
Well, it was very exciting!
We of course made a big deal out of it...those little muscles in her hand are hard for her to manipulate...so we are very proud.
She can only do it with her left hand so far...but is working on the right hand too.
She continues to walk back and forth between furniture, without her walker. She is doing great things and always with a smile. We love you Elsie!!!

  9. I could just eat her up. In our family we like to do I love you signs and touch our fingers together. Cheesy, but fun.
