Communication

Calla has start communcating with us using her fingers and her own words. Today she learned the sign for "More". So now she can tell us when she wants more water or more food or more whatever she wants more of. As you can tell by some of these photos she is not needing more of much. It was quite amazing though tonight when she was drinking her water and after her first sip, she signed to us that she wanted more water.
As you can see from these photos also, that she is quite enamoured with her big sis, Aspen. So she now calls Aspen and all doggies of the world, Didi. Didi is the first thing she ask for in the morning and is not happy until didi walks down the hallway to greet her in the morning. Someimes we have to walk around the house until we find Didi. Her other favorite thing in the world is bananas, and they are called , babas. Of course her other favorite thing in the world is her parents. Fortunely for me, dada is the first one she has learn. So both mom and dad are dada to Calla right now. She can not get the mama out as of yet. We are working on it though. While I am traveling I call every morning and when the phone rings, Calla says, :"dada". So that is the limit of the words of Calla we have deciphered so far. I am sure she is telling us a lot more though.
