As many of you know Naomi gets speech therapy every other week from Laura Mize her speech therapist. She has been doing very well, but I will save that for another entry on her progress. Laura called last week and asked if it would be OK for her to film Naomi for her 4th video that she is shooting (it will be out soon). Teach me to Talk vol 1 is already available at Teachmetotalk.com (Laura's website). Video 2 and 3 will be released very soon and then the video Naomi along with other children will be in will be released after that. 
Friday morning Naomi and I went to the church where they were shooting so that Naomi could record her few minute of fame. Since being therapy Naomi has starting talking a lot, but there is this strange thing that happens when she is around Laura. She reverts to all signing and very little spoken word. That is exactly what she did Friday. It was kind of funny since she had jabbered away all morning until Laura asked her to talk. Laura said she got some footage that is usable. We had fun and hopefully soon we can see the finished product. Laura's website is teachmetotalk.com where she has all kinds of helpful resources for parents.
That's funny that she reverts to mostly sign language around Laura! I know Ellie is much less verbal away from home, but not with any specific person. Your Naomi is getting so big!

ReplyDeleteHey - thanks for the recommendation. We should be seeing Laura after the first of the year. I go to church with another first steps person and she said confirmed Laura is awesome. I look forward to meeting her.
