AW: I wanna brag too!

@lewispm made Bryson a set of fabric letters. When he plays with them, we go over what each letter is. Monday night, he pulled out the B, held it up to me and said, "B!" He clapped for himself because he was so proud.

Last night, his Tiny Diner mat was on the kitchen counter. I've never told him what color it is, but he pointed and said, "Blue!" I was proud about the B, but pointing out the color when it wasn't something I've taught him almost made me cry.

Last one- the new school year started Monday and they started a Student of the Day. Each day, the best student gets a sticker on their report. Bryson won the first ever in a unanimous vote. He also won yesterday. His teacher told me this morning that he's been in contention every day, but they have to spread it around.

I've been dying to tell people this stuff all week. MH doesn't quite get my excitement.

Way to go Bryson!

Emmett would never get the sticker. I think he just screams all day at daycare. They put him in the room with the least amount of kids always. They need to be bring in a specific person to feed him and calm him down because she is only one who he will eat from. On Monday I went to pick him up and everyone was telling me how he had a great day and it was his best day yet (we have been going since December), but when I got in the room the new person said that he likes to scream a lot. Great so on his best day he left the impression that he likes to scream a lot.

When he screams, is he crying or doing it in excitement, etc?

Oh crying and flailing his body all around. He does it at home too.

What a stinker! I tell Bryson I have a mental file of the things he does so I can do them back to him when I'm old and he's caring for me. I hope this goes in yours. Haha

Only if K teaches B that walking isn't scary. He's regressed from what he was doing and is terrified of it now. PS. I have a feeling we'll have more playdates for learning these things soon considering our husbands are in 2 fantasy leagues together (I think).

Awwe Walking isn't scary, B! It's fun!

And @fishybride82 Kellen won't say momma either. You are not alone. He really only says "that" and "dada" consistently. Every other words we think he learns last about a week or 2 then seem to disappear from his vocabulary!
