So I took a little break from blogging... But the "little break" was 5 months, it appears. 5 months sure flies by around here!!!
Eli will be FIVE in just a few months. He is all about time, temperature, and counting. He can add numbers in his head like I can't believe, and likes it when it's 4:44. We put a clock in his room, got him a watch, and Mimi got him a indoor/outdoor thermometer. ((I'm not sure if this created the obsession or fed the obsession?)
And of course, he is still all about cars and trucks and semis and emergency vehicles. He can be found a LOT in front of a book making this face ... ((Making car noises -- he calls it "driving".)) Eli's first year of school is almost done, and he has done well. He's a lot less shy and a little more rambunctious while he's there. I got to come in for their pajama party and it was fun to watch him interact with all the kids.
Next year we are doing 4 days a week of pre-K.
Sammy Sam is almost THREE in June.
Which is crazy because I feel like he was just born, and now he's a little boy with opinions and ideas and can count as high as he wants until he loses interest. He loves to sing (his abc's mostly) and mimics just about everything that Eli does. Eli bosses him around a lot and he usually just listens. If he doesn't listen, he usually just cries -- which we are working on. We have been telling him to tell Eli NO or just ignore him. But Eli sure knows how to push SAMs buttons some times. Other times, they are the best of friends.
Coming soon for us ... Vacation to the beach!! Potty training (maybe this time will be easy!?) and the circus.
Life is good around here. Challenging every day, but good. We are counting our blessings.
