Words (really, sounds) Gracie can say:
- No! (pronounced: new, gno, or any variation in between)
- Delilah (pronounced: duh-NYE-nah)
- Uh-Oh
- Wha? (pronounced: whaaaaaaaahhhhh? going extrememly high pitched at the end)
- Baby (pronounced:bee bee)
Signs Gracie can make:
- please
- thank you
- hungry/eat
- thirsty/drink
- bye
- cereal
- kitty (sometimes)
We are working on doing thumbs up now, since the sign for good is too close to "thank you".
That's a good list - she's growing up so fast! Our oldest daughter's first word was our cat's name... so funny. (I was a tad jealous of the cat since she took forever to start saying Mama!)

Wow- that's so great that she is learning to sign! I've always wanted to read the Baby Signs book- it's so fascinating to me. And I love the "gno"- so cute! :)

Hi. My name is Kay and I live in China. I have worked in the local orphanage for almost four years and recently resigned due to my inability to face the trauma/neglect/corruption any longer. Surfing adoption stories help to cheer me up and I came across yours. Your daughter reminds me of so many baby girls that I have loved over the years--she is beautiful and you write like a very special mom. You and Gracie are lucky to have found eachother. -- Kay
