Our smarty pants

This morning when I was feeding them breakfast Nicholas pointed at the side of the fridge (a picture of Grandpa - my dad - holding them as little babies is on the fridge) and I said "oh do you see Grandpa Nicholas?" and I pointed at the picture.
This is the picture:

Then Jason came in the kitchen and I was telling him how Nicholas was looking at Grandpa. And I said - to nicholas - "where's Grandpa"
and Celia whipped around and pointed directly at the picture on the fridge. We were like "holy smokes" since we really havent worked on that. So we figured it was a fluke so we asked her again and she is definitely pointing at the picture. She will do it over and over.
I even got a picture of her when I asked "where's Grandpa?"
I had to call Grandpa Maus and tell him!

  4. That's so amazing! You always wonder just what they understand and know. And little Celia has proved that she knows a lot.

    It makes me hopeful b/c I'm using some signs with my babies now and hope they can understand a few (like milk, eat, all done). Are you doing singing, too?

  5. I meant to ask if you were signing, not SINGing! ;)

  6. I havent done signing with them - just a lot of repetition and pointing to try to get them to know what I mean.
    So I always try to say "More?" when I hand them food , or "all done" when I get them out of their highchair. I think they understand what I am saying most of the time.
