Nico just did a perfect "more" sign, the first time we've seen him properly curl his fingers and make it perfectly distinct. It was in the context of demanding more chicken, rather than the green beans, rice, or other things we wished to feed him. It also got him more chicken, because communication must be rewarded.

This is effectively his first real word. I'm thrilled.

Yes, it is all very full of awesome! And evidently also full of chicken!

"More" was also the first hand sign for both of my kids, though I think each had one or two verbalizations first (also of the mama/dada variety).

"m" is a tough one for Nico, so mama may, sadly, be awhile. He can press his lips together and make popping sounds, but mmmmmm seems far away.
