S-p-e-l-l-i-n-g

My dear son is over the moon about trains.  At Christmas, we watched "Polar Express" every day.  I mean every.  Single.  Day.  You know the part where the 2 kids are on the back on the train singing a little song about Christmas?  Well, the G-man has been humming that since mid-December.  All day.  Every day.  It was adorable....at first....but now is getting a little old. 

We're sitting at the dinner table this evening and he started humming it.  I look over at Joe and say, "I'm just about S-I-C-K of that song," with a smile (kind of).  Molly turns to us and says, "he sure does L-O-V-E that song!"

Yots and yots

I've decorated G's room in a sailboat theme.  On the walls, I have a couple of phrases written.  "Come sail away with me," and "row, row, row your boat."  Every time we change him (and that's a lot) we talk about the letters, the color of the room, the boats and lighthouses.  He's a talker.  Big time.  I'm changing him today and he says, "O.  O, mama, O."  I say, "that's right bub!  What other letters do you see?"  He says, "yots, mama.  yots and yots of them."  (For those of you that might not be up to date on your toddler speak, yots = lots!)
