OWEN SIGNED HIS FIRST WORD TO ME TONIGHT!
I guess signing can't have hard consonants, so my first worry is somewhat alleviated.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
OWEN SIGNED HIS FIRST WORD TO ME TONIGHT!

However, whatever the word was -- way cool.
It was "milk", ita.
Talk about needing some segueway there.
Cash, that is so exciting.
It's very exciting considering I've been signing to him for two months with nothing. But I was warned it takes a loooooong time for some babies to pick up.
He gets words and how to use them. His whole world just changed. I'm tearing up.
YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY OWEN!!
Clevery little fiance Emma has there, huh?
aw, Owen. He's so smoove.
Huzzah, Owen! You go with your big bad milk-requesting self! That's fantastic news!
Now that a proper separation between topics has been established, Susan, IMO you are so very right about "cock." I'm pretty damn certain it's period, it's totally what a soldier would say, it's a vast improvement over candied length, and this Jane Austen-phile has no problem whatever with the word. Plus, I'm pretty sure I've seen it used in a couple of Regencies over the last year or so, so unless my fevered brain is totally making it up you've got established, published precedent. Go team cock!
