Last night Janna told me the story of snow white and dopey. Then she sang "five little monkeys hanging from a tree" and then then " Five little monkeys jumping on the bed". She is working on numbers at school.
This morning she said Mommy, Do you know Eric and Rachel? Yes with a smile ( his my brother and sister in law) They haven't been to my house in a long time. Would you like to see them soon. Yes please. She is such a sweet little girl with a big heart.
She just keeps growing. She is having more accidents at school lately, and a few at home at bedtime, we are trying to figure out why. Hopefully it is a phrase. She did poop on the big potty and flush it all by herself. I was a little sad that she is getting so much bigger and better at things, but I am happy to Not have to empty her little potty:)
Tales from the mother of the most adorable, lovable, perfect little monsters any parent could ask for.

Simon Update
This morning Simon was head banging to his musical toys. He loves music and sounds. He was dancing too. At one point when Elmo's world was play Isaac heard him singing.
He can eat a banana by himself now.
He says "Wa" for water and has starting trying to repeat us.
He knows sign language for more, please, drink, and a very others that he doesn't use often.
He loves the tunnel he got for Christmas. He and Janna crawl though that and the tent giggling the whole time. They try to get us to come in too, but it is a lot harder for us to get in and out.
We call him Swipper the fox from Dora, because he like to walk to wear Janna is playing and take a toy and run.
He doesn't like to wear his shoes. He will throw fits when you put them on.
He loves walks and sitting next to his sister.
He loves to throw....anything that he should or shouldn't throw.
As much as he wear me out I love my little monster who always keeps me running.

Simon
Simon is healthy and happy. He is always into everything. He loves Janna's toys. The Dora backpack, princess CD player, dress shoes and jewelry. I think he wants to be like his sister. He runs away when you are trying to dress him or change his diaper. He laughs and giggles the whole time. He is currently loving sitting in Janna's princess chair. I have ordered him an Elmo one so they both have one. He loves his Baby genius video with songs and kids and cartoons. Good pick mom. Simon is still a loud eater and loves to eat. He is even sleeping better.
I am so happy to have my healthy baby boy back even though he wears me out!

So proud
I am so proud of my little girl who is growing up too fast.
She has been wearing underwear (panties) to bed at night and hasn't had an accidents. No more pull ups. yeah!
This morning she was so excited to take her new strawberry shortcake movie to school for movie day. I realized as we were walking in that it was last movie we watched in the car at christmas break. I looked in the case and there was no CD. I told Janna I was sorry and we could bring it next week. She very calmly said that is okay I will watch my friends movie. Then a few minutes late she told her teacher that she only had the case but the cd was gone. The old Janna would have cried or gotten upset. Janna was very good and took it well.
On a teacher note it praised that she is interacting with classmates more and cleaning up when told to. Both very good improvements.
Janna has been great at sharing her toys with Simon who seems to like her toys better than his. She is overall very patient with him and shows him how to do something if help is needed.
I am very proud of Janna and she is such a blessing to us.

What happens if...
This morning driving to school in snow here was our conversation...
J: They need to put salt on the road. What does salt do to the snow?
M: The salt melts the snow.
J: What does pepper do to the snow?
M: I think it just sits there. We can do an experiment after school.
J: okay ( with a smile) What happens if you put salt and pepper on the snow?
M: It was melt a little bit I think.
J: I put salt and pepper on green beans. What happens if you put green beans in the snow?
M: They would get really cold.
J: What happens if you put toast in the snow?
M: It was get soggy and wet and yucky.
J: What happens if you put a cup in the snow?
M: you can build a snow castle.
J: went on and on about snow castles, angels, and on and on until we pulled into snow
I love mornings like this! I love my kids!
