The great communicator

Sawyer's communication skills continue to improve.

This past week or so, he's gotten his third word: "Agua." Add that to "Dad" and "that" (which sounds like "dat," which sounds like "Dad," calling into question whether he really distinguishes between "that" and "dad" in the first place).

In addition, he's using sign more effectively. He had his first bite of pancake this weekend, and very clearly signed "more" as soon as he tasted it. Some other signs, like "all done" and "up" and "yum" all seem confusingly similar (some variety of shaking his hands around), but "more" is quite clear now.

So fun!
