Sam is talking!

Sam has been starting to say some sentences lately, so we are thinking he will start talking soon.
The other day he was displaying his edenic view of clothing (thanks, Babystepper!) and my mom told him "Go get your diaper!" to which he replied "do deh DOO dider!" (Go get YOUR diaper, in Sam speak)
That same day Sam and Trinity were running around and around the coffee table, minding their own business when Cody finally got annoyed at them and yelled "Knock it off!" to which Sam replied "Naah Ahhh!" while pointing at Cody.

Sam is also understand that you can talk with your hands. We taught him the sign for milk pretty early, and then we've watched some Signing videos with him. But the other day we asked him to "say please" for something and he started holding his hand flat up near his shoulder like he was shrugging, but then started wiggling his fingers. He consistently did that sign for please. We finally figured out that when he has something he shouldn't have we hold out our hand and wiggle our fingers and say "Give it to mommy, please!" Smart cookie.

(that other baby in the picture? Yeah, he was born the same day as Sam. Sam is taller now, but he is MUCH lighter to carry around!)
