Cole's form of communication

Since Cole isn't speaking in a language that most people can understand he is resorting to his own form of communication. If Cole's wants a sip or bite of what ever you are eating or drinking he opens his mouth and points to it and says "ungh, ungh" and then it is usually followed by a "teeeease" or "teease do". If he just wants something he points to his open hand. If he wants you to follow him he pats his leg and then points the direction he wants you to go in. We are really working hard to get him to at least say one word of what he wants. We pretty much know what it is that he wants.....movie, cookie, gum, the usual things he tries to get us to let him have or watch, so we always as him to try to say the word. He is pretty good about trying but it comes out so funny. I can't wait until he is running his mouth!
