Expanding the Vocabulary

Gusi is now clearly saying pan and agua. And no, we are not just giving him bread and water. I think that they're easy, short-syllable words that he can repeat. He also said pie (foot) yesterday but it took me poking his foot a few times to get it out of him. Apart from that is the ever popular más (more) which he both says and signs (in case I'm not looking) and *por favor* (please) which he signs all the time now. I'm trying to work on the sign for *gracias* (thank you) but it's not working at the moment. He's even signing *more please* when he really likes something.

This is the time that we really, really have to watch what we're saying as it is no longer falling on deaf ears.
