Raphael has recently started tall kneeling (kneeling with his thighs perpendicular to the floor) without holding on to anything for a couple of seconds at a time. He seems to be confident with this but then always reaches to grab hold of me before he has any chance of falling.
He has just recently started to sign "time" back to us when we sign "bed" "time" to him and put him in bed. "Time" is a complicated sign but he does a pretty good job of it with a pointed finger and two hands.
On the other hand he uses "finished" less frequently now and is more likely just to turn away from food offered to him. If asked if he is all done then he will enthusiastically sign finished (two handed) to confirm his desire not to eat any more. Also he has begin to use a one handed "finished" sign to indicate that he is having a good time so it can be a bit of a challenge to work out what he really wants. If he is signing "finished" and turns away from food when offered then that is the message that he does not want to eat any more.
