A day of firsts

Matthew got his first pair of walking shoes this afternoon. He is a size 3f now, if anyone is interested. To be accurate, they're boots, not shoes, but they're very cool.

While Matthew was getting dried after his bath, he signed "medicine", which was exactly what comes next, before his "milk", which he's been signing since he was 6 or 7 months old.

After Matthew finished his bedtime milk, Mummy asked him if he would like to read a book, and Matthew signed "book" all by himself! He was such a clever boy. He's signed lots of words over the last six months, but this is the first time he signed "book".

Then, to be a real show-off, Mummy asked Matthew where his nose was (because he was touching the bunny's nose in the book), and he signed "nose" as well!

After his story, he pointed at his teeth, because it was time to brush them.

Then, he signed "bed" before he was taken off to sleep.

He's a superstar today.
