Signs!

Ellie is doing great with signs. We forget to do it to her so we all struggle with this but we are all learning. Ellie can hear and will follow commands but she can not verbally communicate back so this is why it is so important for us all to use sign when talking with her.

I do not have a prefered link yet and eventually will post the picture of each sign as Ellie learns them but for now here is a list of signs Ellie does:

please, more, milk, eat/food, drink, goodnite, baby, dog, thank you, book, stop, no, up, play, site, music, mom, and dad, wash, and diaper. We also do help but this is modified for her as the other is too hard... for help you just take your hands and pat just under your collarbone a couple times. right hand pat right side Left on left.
