Houston, We Have Contact

It’s tough to see in still photos, but that is the sign for “more”!  Hooray!

The irony is that he did this just as he finished a jar of baby food—the last jar of that flavor.  Which means that we did not, in fact, have more.  I tried substituting something else, but he wasn’t having it.

Ah, well.  Even if he doesn’t keep signing, at least we can do this together:
