Starfish - we've been trying to teach him to sign since he was about 3 months old. I guess around the same time that we started the EC training. A friend of mine let me borrow the Australian Baby Sign book. Maybe have a look on ebay for a second hand copy?

EC training is going well. He went a little backwards for a few weeks due to illness, but seems to be back on track. Now he's started signing, I'm hoping he'll start signing for wees and poos. We've started giving him nappy free time again (I know it's cold, but he wears babylegs) so he can feel what wees feel like again. And then, I'm hoping that he'll start signing when he's done wees. DH had him nappy free this evening, he did wees on his carpark/garage toy and on a big bag of dog biscuits that we'd just bought in from the shops!!! Too funny!!!

We had an awwwww.... cute moment this afternoon. We were doing our fruit and veg shopping. Caeleb always loves to suck on a green apple as we go around picking out what we want. So, as usual, we gave him his green apple. When we got the the register, we weighed one of the apples twice so we didn't have to take Caeleb's away from him. We tried that once before and he screamed the place down. Anyway, the girl was just about finished. Caeleb looked over, looked at what was going on, then placed his apple on the bench to be scanned. It was sooooooooooooooooo sweet. I grabbed his apple, waved it over the scales and said "beep". He was happy with that, grabbed it back off me and continued to suck on his apple. I've just got the most gorgeous little boy in the whole world!!!

Okay... it's 11:20pm and I'm still waiting for my bread and butter pudding to bake. I've never made it before, but got inspired whilst we were out shopping. DH said, don't make it tonight, you'll be up for hours. "Poo poo" I said... please don't tell him he was right!!!
