My two were/are late doing everything... crawling, walking, talking, etc. No early reading for the first (but she was half-blind before she got glasses at 4.5 so who knows what she would have done). I will say that she NEVER stops talking or asking questions now. Little man (almost 2) only says about 20 words but knows quite a few letters and all of his colours. He recognizes his name and can spell it with magnetic letters. His fine motor skills are insane. He does 30 piece puzzles. Did I mention that he can barely talk?

I find I watch DS much differently than I did DD. I completely missed any signs with her. Maybe I am watching too closely with him and looking for something that isn't there. Who knows?
