N seems to have invented a sign for "heavy" -- if, after turning something over in her hands, she decides it's heavy, she will look you in the eye, hoist it a bit, and grunt (rather conversationally!) as if straining over a reeeeally heavy thing. She's clearly spent a lot of time with us while we lift weights.

Signs you've been reading a lot of Sandra Boynton:

"What does the sheep say?"
"Sheep!"
"It *is* a sheep, you're right! Do you know what the sheep says?"
"BAAAAAAAA."
"Yeah! How about the cow, what does the cow say?"
"MOOOOOO!"
"Yeah!! And what does the pig say?"
"LA LA LA LA LA!"
