Dylan has adapted a new sign for "ceiling fan". He flaps his wrist like he's waving, but he adds a little rotation to it to mimic the movement of the blades. He's been doing it every time we enter a room with a ceiling fan, whether it's on or off.
He really got a thrill when he realized that he could communicate this to other people and elicit a consistent response. He'll sign "fan" and it makes everybody smile and say "fan, fan" and do Cheryl's original sign for fan which is an upwards pointed finger going in a circle.
He's suddenly trying to communicate a lot more with his hands.
