First Word

Bode spoke his first word today! ...In sign language, that is.  I've been working with him today on the sign for "doggy."  He loves to watch Asia, and one of Maggie's first signed and spoken words was "doggy," so I thought it would be a good start to his signing vocabulary.  The sign for dog is patting your leg, like you're calling a dog.  Granted, Bode moves his arms like this quite frequently, but I really think he gets the correlation! In unrelated Gibbs news, Bode is working on two more teeth in addition to the two he got a couple weeks ago, Maggie just started swimming lessons, and my left arm is getting noticeably more toned due to holding Bode with that arm while I complete other tasks with my right.
