The device that allows bug to hear |
In a matter of just a few weeks we have started hearing sentences come out of Lily's mouth. We often look at her and say "what did you say?'. We are still in awe when we hear her speak in sentences. She has also started to put more than one sign together when she signs. It seems like just yesterday she was startled by the fact that she could suddenly hear.
Some of her most used sentences as of late include "Where it go", "That is Mommy's", "That is Daddy's", "Where ...insert name here", and "This is mine". She has many more that she uses as well these just happen to be the ones she uses the most. Her new favorite game on car rides is to ask where mommy, daddy, Leland, and Christian are. After we answer where we are we ask her where bug is and she responds with "here".
Lily has also developed a great love for playing at the park. When she sees we are near a park or playground she says "I want to play" while signing play. She gets along great with other kids and loves to say "hi" to all of the other kids she sees. She is very shy around adults and we are completely okay with that!
Here are some pictures that show, CI or not, she is like every other kid. Except when the slide is a bit of a bumpy ride she might lose a processor.
