Miscellaneous

B's joke for this week, which he tells every day is "why did the bird fly south?"....because it was too far to walk. Two tough questions he has asked recently are "is Santa real?" and "how do you grow hair on your chest?". I understand the Santa comment with the holidays here, but the chest hair.....



JB is starting to initiate walking. If you ask him to stand up and walk, he proudly shows off his 6 or 7 steps before crashing to the floor in squeals. He had speech today and she could not get him to communicate with his hands but he did make a lot of vowel sounds, but not really any consonants. He sure is babbling a lot at home.



Jbird and I have gotten lots of couch time the last couple of days. He likes to watch PBS and I sit with him for a few minutes, holding him and playing with his hair. It always works---he goes to sleep and then I just sit and hold him. That is one thing I like about the winter. When the weather is warm and sunny, I feel bad being inside but when it is cold out, just bundle up under the covers and hang out. His friend Johnny is over right now. I just love to hear them talk amongst themselves. Recently John asked Jbird if Jbird dreamed about him. They are both into the 'you cheated' stage. Johnny was trying to convince Jbird that he was strong. Jbird would have nothing of it...telling him he was not strong enough to lift a heavy box. Johnny said 'yes, I am....see' to which Jbird turned around and said 'i am not looking'

The laundry is done for the day and I have actually emptied the ironing basket. Off to do a few more projects while JB is napping!!!!



Friday I am headed into B's classroom, always look forward for opportunities to get to know more of the kids.
