This house has some really bored kids with not being able to go outside and burn off energy. As a result, David and I are going to take Holly to agility class on Tuesday nights, and I'm looking for swim lessons for David. Gymnastics was getting hard to do at noon on Saturday with other activities and Mommy is tired of driving to Anderson every week, so we're putting it on hold for awhile.
We started working on phonics and David really likes it. He's managed to memorize the songs about letter sounds. And we've been reading a lot of books from the library. He really likes the "No David" series and the "It's Christmas David" book was a big hit. I get a kick of hearing him say Naughty List, Naughty List, Naughty List on one of the pages. And the No David character has a Westie, and I think that our David kind of relates to the type of trouble that the character gets into!
He can still count to 29 and thinks 10 comes next. Some days we argue about it. He's trying to give up naps, but if you don't take a nap one
day, you will go to bed 30 minutes earlier. That's slowed down the nap renegade. He spells and writes his name, and has started spelling his name backwards.
Our latest debate between mother and son has been wearing a winter coat. He won't wear a fleece or sweatshirt and thinks that short sleeves are just fine any day of the week. I finally kind of won the battle on wearing a shirt with a color to church. It's the same one every week, but I don't complain. And he will wear a winter jacket as long as it's not "too big for me", gloves/mittens (he made me cut the string off) and an Olaf hat. I don't have any expectation that he will wear dress clothes for Easter, so I don't think I'll even buy any this year! Last year I let him pick them out but he wouldn't wear them.:-)
