Big girl Glory, hanging with mom while Dane is at school
The kiddos after bath time.Dane:
Dane is quite possibly the sweetest boy on earth...yet of course he has his moments. He says the sweetest things to me all the time. "You are my favorite Mommy," "Mom, you are my best friend," "Mommy, you are the best mommy to me." He also says the ugliest things, "You are a mean mom!" "Do you have a baby in your tummy, mom?" Ugh.
He is doing great with school, he loves it. After the children have large group they are dismissed to go to different areas of learning. Dane always chooses art first. I love that.
I just cannot believe how grown up he has gotten. He is recognizing letters and his name. He can spell his name, but only write a "D." He loves singing all the songs he learns at school. I go into Dane's classroom every other Tuesday, I truly enjoy spending that time with him!
Glory:
Glory has personality galore. She is still very aggressive with other children and babies. I'm trying to be patient, I know it is just a phase...but it is frustrating.
Glory is very smart. I realize I am her mom, but I still think she is smart! Her language has exploded! She knows so many words, I could never remember them all. She loves seeing the pumpkins outside; she can say pumpkin and flower. She can sign flower as well. She tells Gatsby, "down!" when he tries to sneak food from her highchair. She gets very excited to see babies and can say, "baby." Other words: please, thank-you, more, out, outside, up, nuk, mine, apple, car, guy, dane, mommy, daddy, grandpa, eye, nose, hi, bye-bye, no, yeah, potty, blanket, dog, baby einstein, barney, blues clues... She will repeat anything you ask her to say. She follows directions very well. She will wipe her nose with a tissue or try to take her clothes off for a bath if you ask her to.
Glory still does not like to be read to and still takes a bottle...
I love being her mom!
