Tonight we were getting ready to leave my father in law's house and Sam was all excited, he'd been playing on the floor with Steve. We were saying how much Sam loves Steve and I said, "Does Sam want Steve and Sam said STEVE!!!!!!! There was no doubt in our minds that he said it. Then just a couple of minutes later, Jon picked him up and he tried to slide down Jon's front and clearly said Steve again as if he was wanting Steve to pick him up instead of Jon. Since we've been home he has said STEVE a few more times!!!!
This is a huge breakthrough for Sam. We are in AWE of this!!!!
Having said that, there are times when Sam learns something, a new skill and he forgets it for awhile, but he does come back to it so even if this is a one day thing, he has it in his mind now! He has learned then forgotten several things like clapping his hands on cue, somersaulting, but the skills always come back some months later....
So we are a happy bunch tonight! Sam knew I needed some encouragement!!!!
