He is delayed in ASL too. He is making nice progress though. Now at the 18 to 20 month range and he is 27 months old. Before, he was a year delayed in both signing and speech hence our concerns.

That's why we got a speech/language specialist working with him just in case he has some cognitive delays but it is looking like he doesnt have any issues with cognitive processing so far.
