REALLY Happy
He spoke! Oscar said a word, completely unprompted. We were in the kitchen and the oven was on. He walked by it and I looked down at him while he was signing “hot,” and all of a sudden he said “hot. . . hot” out loud. Clear as day – just like he says it all of the time or something. I got all excited and he started clapping for himself. If he only knew.
I doubt this is one of those breakthrough moments where everything is going to turn and we’ll find out that he actually has a vocabulary of 50 words that were dying to break through. I don’t care, though. I’m happy just knowing that he can actually think of words on his own and get them out. Or, at least one of them.

Where I’ve Been
hi! long time, no talk.
z signed before she spoke. the first time she said “more” (which was also among her first words), was because she wanted some more of a milkshake we gave her…..the sign wasn’t workin’ so she decided to say it!
try a milkshake. you may get word #2.
congrats.
YEAH! And he even got the “h”???? That is a WOW!!!
Yayyy! Wonderful music to your ears, I’m sure. Happy for you both.
