Kieran can count to ten! It happened randomly as we were eating dinner last night and he did it again later that evening.

DH and I were like...


I know it's probably due to repetition and sesame street but still....ma ma so proud

Awesome! I had a mama pride moment this morning too. E picked up all the wooden train pieces C left out. He put them in the wrong toy box so we might not find them again, but he picked them all up and I didn't ask!

That is so impressive! DS knows like, 6 colors, so there.  

No, I'm really impressed. That is awesome

DD can count to ten, but insists that everything is blue. ;-)

My son can count to 10 too. 1, 2, 6, 10.  Thats good right?
And everything is green in our house. No matter what..everything is green.

Mine can only say 1 and hold up his little pointer finger. He also doesn't know any colors as he has no interest when we sit down and try to do shapes, numbers or colors. He runs away after I get everything out and sit down to do it.

Like @draeray‌ , E will hold up two fingers and say "dwo." Yes, with a d. M not sure he can SAY t.

I feel like a tool, because I didn't realize that was anything. It's not like I taught him anything. Thank goodness for daycare!

All food in our house is an 'apple'.

Boys went on their first stroller-free walk with Dad this weekend - a whole mile of walking, didn't get carried once. 

Their return home:

Who needs numbers?  Everything demanded in excess of one is "more!"

Whenever I have written M's name in all caps, she does something to the "I" in it.  I was like, whatever, she wants to color the "I."  But after a couple times, it was obvious she was correcting it.  She knows that the "I" is supposed to have bars at the bottom and top since that is how it is in all the alphabet things she has, but mom has been making it as just a line.  So M has been correcting it for me.

Oh, and new muscle baby can roll over, push up, and smile at 6 weeks old.

Ryan thinks that all numbers need to be followed by "AH AH" like the count on Sesame Street.  Also the only colors here are pink and brown.

We also went to the dentist today for teeth well-checks. No discolouration or plaque buildup Sim's has plenty of spacing, and Jamie's are pretty close but normal flossing is doing the job. Also they just about lost their minds playing with sticky wall walkers the hygienist gave them... repeatedly threw those sticky little men at the wall and screamed with joy to watch them flip down the wall...

We are big on "more" for everything. Although today I held up blocks and got her to pick the right colour. She did it three times...the fourth time she smacked me. So that was the end of the blocks. Really not a fan of this hitting stage.

DD pooped on the potty all weekend long. :-)

I am NOT potty training but she has been asking to go and going.....wish she could rub off on my 2.5 year old who refuses to do the same. Not really sure what to do with her though because daycare won't potty train until 2? Wish I could just get my kids to switch their behavior in that aspect. lol.

Also, she is finally walking pretty well. (didn't take steps until 18mths so...still kinda new at it)

MalRiggs

DD has started answering questions. Of course most the time its NO. And we are big on more which is loosely translated as "NOW B@TCH". So far DD is working out to have my personality and DH's brains...this going to get interesting

Hey here's what I traded in for the counting. Horrible separation anxiety and we barely walk on our own anymore. It's bad guys (as you know from my last few posts) and now he projects it onto his sitter and is clingy with her.

I'm at a loss anymore what to do about it.

We can make this a drinking thread wine XD

Generalized anxiety disorder, now with more compulsions. You, too, can be an obsessive outfitter.
