Dinner time conversation has escalated to new heights with Aiden's questions lately. For example: "How does a boat with heavy stuff float?" or "How far do you have to go before you leave our air and go into moon air?" Where is the handbook to prepare us for these questions!! Thank goodness for the internet! He is quickly learning that mom and dad don't know everything. We figure that no answer with a "let's look it up" is better than a guess or a wrong answer. Parenting is about the most humbling experience in the world! He knows SO much more than I did at his age. Both boys are so sharp and keep me on my toes for sure.
Wish I had some pics to share... my 35 mm is broken, but I hope to remedy that soon. I cut Liam's hair with the clippers and he looks like a little boy now! He is really close to saying many intelligible words as the jabbering is almost constant now. The poor thing; I really feel like he carries on whole conversations with me and I just don't get it! He gets across the essentials though with his sign language. I understand that all his snacks are "cados" (as in avo-cado). All birds are "chick" (for his first and favorite bird to learn-chicken). He says dog and cat and now up pretty well. He can follow 2-step directions and he knows 10 signs and uses them appropriately (thank you, please, up, help, eat, more, drink, cat, dog, all done). Aiden signed a lot and jabbered nonsensically and now he is a chatter box, so I expect the same with Liam.
That's the news for now. We have Friday afternoon park day pretty soon. Love to all!
