Museum Day

Ishish and I took advantage of Museum Day and went back to the science museum. I think he really liked it, based on the amount of jumping and running he was doing.

Yesterday

Here's some of what Ishish was up to yesterday:

He continued to go straight to the office when we get home from preschool to find Dada, even though I keep telling him that he's not there.

He's practicing putting clothes on. He especially likes wearing his shorts as a hat (also note the tan lines on his feet).


He used a real cup during snack time. Normally he only gets to do that after brushing his teeth, so he was very proud.


Now that he's got jumping off the curb mastered his next goal is to jump onto the curb. So far that's only led to lots of scrapes and bruises.

I've decided it's time to check out library books, because he's willing to sit through longer stories. We only brought home four books. I ended up being glad because when we got home he had me read them all to him right away! Here he's enjoying a book about cats (of course) by Eric Carle (of course).

Can You Guess...

who his favorite author is?

Reading in a Boat

A month ago I told Ishish that his toy basket was a boat, and we play with it on occasion. Today he brought books into it one by one and told me he was reading in his boat. I love the way he holds each page up for me to see!

Last Two Days

We've had a lot of fun lately. Yesterday we went grocery shopping. While waiting in the checkout line, Ishish grabbed my hands and started waving his arms around and swaying his body. He said "dancing!" No, there was no music playing. Later that night he kept telling me "grocery shopping fun!"

This afternoon we went to the park. He figured out how to climb onto the train all by himself!

He also insisted on going on four different swings (baby swing, big boy swing, red swing, and tire swing) and down two types of slides (many, many times). He told me that the red swing was a car seat.

When we were getting ready for supper he told me that he wanted tofu and cheese. How could I deny a request like that? He put two of his blueberries next to each other and told me they were sunglasses.

Later he said to me "sing ABC", so I started singing the ABC song. I was shocked when he joined in! Sorry you hear a lot more of me than him on this video.
