Yesterday I was making lunch for L and asked him, "if you have 2 cats in a room, how many cat legs do you have?" and if 5 puppies are in a room and 2 run out, how many are left?", various questions like that. He could figure out the answers and asked if I knew any more questions like that. I think it's cool he's doing basic addition and subtraction, and even cooler that he can listen to a "story problem" without running away screaming as I would do.

We confirmed last week, that even if L was going to be going to school, he wouldn't be eligible this fall because his birthday is after the cut off.

L got an idea to make a puppet theater, so we set up the playstands to be one and gave Marc a lunchtime puppet show. Those things are handy!

In the F's world... eating, eating, eating. Nighttime EC seems to have done its job, he's been dry overnight for more than a week now, more than 2, I believe. We're only part time in the day, but we still catch after naps and a few others when he's pretty obvious. As with L, it's easier to keep him dry out and about than if we're just hanging out at home.
F is ever fearless. He's got this new thing he does, he raises he arms up and throws his arms down, turns, crawls, repeat. It's cute, it's funny, until he rears up and slams down on the corner of the bed frame. This boy won't learn hot until he feels it.

I added a few photos to January 2010. Here are a few:
