We started to sign to the baby when he turned six months and we still are but two months ago we sort have slowed down. Now that he is 1 year old and beginning to understand more, we're trying to sign more again. A lot of time we just forget to do it. It has been over six months now and I think he is making a lot of progress in the signing department. Here are the signs he has been consistently doing for us with an understanding of what they mean:
- more
- milk
- ball
- clean
- bed (sleep is harder so he signs bed when he is tired)
- sun
- book
- eat or food
- self (he pats himself with his hand)
- diaper change please (he touches or squeezes his diaper from underneath)
- smelly (we all fan away the stinky smell by our nose)
- doggie
- train
- water
- pillow
- "give to Mommy"
- music
- no (to some degree)

Signing is great! My son did a little when he was Tristan's age. It really helps out, less frustration on both sides when trying to understand baby!
Just want to say Tristan is sooooooo cute in this pic... :D
