Not just words

To follow up from the last post, I thought I would make clear that while there are some words that Abi says, there are far more that she understands and others that she signs.
One of those is bath. She loves signing for a bath lately. In fact, she's having one right now after asking for it. She still signs for nursing (her first sign), although she's more inclined to use her word (na-na-na) for nursing.
She also has a thing for feet. She doesn't quite say "feet", but she tries to and she pays a lot of attention to them - feet and shoes.

I've already shared videos demonstrating how she will find a cup and her food when asked (as well as on her own if she wants it). This applies to most things in her life - toys, food, drink, shoes...

Already she has a new word to add to the list "wa" for water.
I edited the last post to add "bubbles". We really don't know where that one comes from since she doesn't have bubble baths and she's only seen bubbles a couple of times. I think she just likes to repeat the word.

And you should see her soccer skills with a ball! She has some fancy footwork.
