onto the table



My worst fear has come true. Nolan is now climbing up onto the table. A few weeks ago he figured out that if the chairs were pulled out he could climb up on the side of them by using the railing underneath. Now he has figured out that the chair puts him at a great height to get onto the table.
His vocabulary has also grown immensely. He is signing all the time and seems to pick up new signs almost daily. When this picture was taken his signs included: baby, flower, car, truck, bus, rain, dog, cat, horse, milk, help, bye, airplane, all done, more, monkey, lion, bird, drink, vacuum, bunny, open, cheese, lawnmower, hot and frog. His signs are not perfect, and some of them end up looking similar because he doesn't make them quite right. But in context it is easy to know what he is talking about. Also as he watches me sign, his seem to get a little better with time.
