Eee!

Ben has made so much progress with communication in the past 2 months it's hard to believe. He learned sign language, learned how to request what he wants with a picture exchange system, started mimicking gestures with certain songs (Wheels on the Bus, Itsy Bitsy Spider, etc.) and now he has finally started mimicking vowel sounds! In the past week he went from not mimicking sounds at all to doing ee, ah, oh, he and ha. His speech therapist said she got chills today during our session when she heard his new sounds. In this video the first sign he makes is for milk and then he does his sign for cookie right before he says "ee".
