Elijah has been making up some of his own signs lately. Yesterday I tried to get some on video. Normally, he just does this spontaneously, when we're reading or whenever he thinks about it, so it's hard to catch it on video. So, if this is a little staged, I'm sorry! =) EJ has little motions to signify gorilla and buffalo (from Eric Carle's Head to Toe), train, and bath (from Sandra Boynton's The Going to Bed Book). He didn't want to do the train for the camera, but I'll try again sometime. His motion for buffalo is basically to bounce up and down, since moving his shoulders is a little too specific right now ... Enjoy!
So adorable! It was so sweet how he gave the gorilla a big hug! How fun that he is making up his own signs =) Caleb likes the Going to Bed Book too. It is one of the few he will actually let me read all the way through.
