It is still so cold here! It feels like winter at the end of April...
A few things Isaac has said lately:
1. He adds -ed and -ing to lots of things, like growinging, and watchted it.
2. He is starting to use prepositions, especially under. He says "on" and "off" but sometimes he gets a little confused with them. And he does say "in" too.
3. Compliments, like at daycare, he has been saying to the girls, "I like your shoes," and "I like your hair" etc.
4. 4-word sentences like "I see the dog"
5. Starting to use "don't" instead of "no" in phrases like "no wanna". He will say "no wanna eat snack" then will correct himself, "don't want eat snack". It's interesting because I haven't ever corrected him. Maybe just said it the right way but I guess he just picked up on it (I mean, I think that's what's supposed to happen - of course I'm just amazed because it's my first experience with it!)
And he has been getting better about trying some new foods. I know this is totally not what you do with most kids, but we have been asking him to try a bite of a food he hasn't tried before prior to having the food he likes. This is supposed to help him try things. He did try a carrot cake muffin I made at snack. But then at dinner I felt like a terrible parent because I said he should try the "Mexican soup" (we are trying to avoid the word "bean" since he doesn't like beans, and it was pureed). He got all defensive and didn't want to, so I told him he could just kiss it instead. But then he opened his mouth so I thought he wanted to try it and I put it on his tongue. Instead he gagged and regurgitated some food (read: puked)! I was really upset about it (inwardly) but he dismissed it as "burp" so hopefully he wasn't too traumatized... He ate tons of tilapia afterwards so it didn't ruin his appetite.
