I thought I would start a post to keep up with all the cute things they do and just dump them here and if/when there was a lot of cute things, I would actually publish the post to the blog. However with all the holiday stuff going on, I forget to get in here and put all the really cute things down.

Here are a couple things I collected the last few weeks....guess I will just publish them to the blog when they happen. Even if it's just a short note.

A few weeks ago, my mom called me at work and couldn't stop laughing. The kids were eating lunch and Parker looked at my mom and said, "I need to wet my whistle" and picked up his drink and took a sip. Sometimes I think he is a little old man trapped in a little toddler's body. hahaha

My mom has a really great routine with the kids. She is AMAZING and we are so fortunate to have her with the kids.
With a little help from me, finding the ideas, she does crafts that revolve around their "letter of the week". They love it.
Sydney continues to be so good with her fine motor skills. She colors 'almost' in the lines. Lets's put it this way, she is very particular and deliberate about where and how she colors.
She also uses a glue stick all by herself and holds a crayon and/or pen like you are supposed to hold a pen.

While we were on vacation, the kids had their little doodle boards. Parker wrote something and then said, "Look the letter 'p'". We looked and sure enough it looked like a letter 'P'(purely by accident we thought)so I said Patrick show him how to write a letter 'P'. Patrick showed him and then Parker wrote it again. he has been writing the letter "p' ever since. The other day he wrote the letter 'c' backwards and then I asked him to write an 'M'..which he wrote with three straight lines side by side..kind of like this....l l l.
