Alex has become quite obsessed with playing with balls lately. We bought him a little set of three Alex-sized sports balls -- a football, a basketball, and a soccer ball -- and he loves everything about them. He loves throwing them, he loves chasing them, he loves kicking them, and he even loves putting them away! He learned the sign for BALL in one showing, and will now insistantly sign "BALL, PLEASE" whenever one of the balls is out of reach.
