A lot has been going on … Ronin can say “I saw a school bus” and “Where is my choo-choo-train?” He can also tell me that his “baby” “needs bottle for a nap!” He likes to kiss her on the head and thinks she is “soft like kitty-cat.” Ronin has become increasingly obsessed with Cars and Trains and now identifies the other kids in his day-care as “friends!” But he calls the train his “best friend” or sometimes “LaQueen” (Lightning McQueen from Cars) as his best friend. “Both!” he will say. He loves chicken and turkey and “beefy-beef” and will ask for food by name. He loves his “fish crack-ers” and wants everything with “apple juice.” The most impressive words are “transporter, refrigerator, and excavator.” He can spot any type of truck on the road and tell you what it is. He calls me “Mommy” now and tells us to wait for him as “I am coming!” He wants everyone with him all the time and hates when Sean and I are not in the car together. He loves his hair to be combed and brushed as well. His favorite animal, Leno, is a big pal of his and he feeds her fish crackers to her. Then he crawls around and moews. He can count to 3 and loves the number 14. He is interested in band-aids and boo-boos but will not let us actually place a band-aid on him as he doesn’t like the “sticky!” “Flowers smell GOOD!” and Poopey diapers are “P.U. or smelly and icky!”
He now says his name – thank G-d!
Now Autumn is the talker. She said “dadadadadadada” and “hihihihihihihi” and now she is working on “aaaaaa”. Sometimes she mixes it up and says “hi-da, hi-da, hi-da, hi-da, hi-da, hi-da, hi-da, hi-da.” She smiles a lot. She also has a sneaky smile and glance that can make you do whatever she wants. She loves her baths and wants constant attention (no surprise there.) She eats with gusto and loves sweet potatoes. She grabs the spoon and won’t let go. She eats all orange, yellow and green vegetables and just started on bananas. She sticks out her tummy when she poops like she is proud of what she has accomplished. And she is just a happy sweet delicious little girl.
Mom’s Day
Sean took Ronin to the Bronx Zoo for a reptile safari and Ronin got to pet a lizard. Sean got some great pictures. Autumn and I had some special mommy daughter time and after the kids naps we had a BBQ with Steve, Tamar and Romy. Ronin and Romy played deliciously together and a good time was had.
Memorial Day
Again another fun packed weekend w/ activities. We went over to my mom’s and played in her backyard (which is now a playground.) We visited Paul who was in town with his wife, Becky to visit Paul’s parents. Got to show off the kids and had a great time.
This weekend we are going to have a BBQ with Godmother Nikki and see Sex and the City (for Nikki and Candi only.) We are also going to play with the kids and on Sunday go to the Bronx Zoo and test out my new walking ability.
