I couldn't be happier that March has finally arrived. We've had warmer weather (30s) so the snow is melting. Last week, it was almost 50 degrees!!! Evan was excited to ride his bike in the driveway. I was happy too, especially since we didn't have jackets on! Although, it feels extremely warm when it's 33 degrees out and usually we don't wear jackets! Layering is quite the skill to be mastered when you live in Minnesota! We're supposed to get some winter weather tomorrow and we got 2 inches yesterday, but it was the thick wet stuff...yuck!
Evan is so fast these days and soooo difficult to get a good photo. I think I need a camera with a faster shutter speed! Any suggestions would be great. I hate to complain about it since Alex just got me a new digital last year.
Lately, we've been working on colors, numbers and the alphabet. He can count to eleven, but skips 4 and 5. Colors seem to be more of a challenge as everything used to be yellow. Mainly because he loves to say the word. Now, it's blue. But, we are practicing and he's doing better.
Evan loves to sing the alphabet and although we get to A, B, C, D and then R,S, T followed by clapping!! His favorite song to sing is "The Wheels on the Bus". Last week, he imitated the singers on American Idol and sings with them. He didn't get it from me, (we all know that) but he can carry a tune!
He's definitely all boy. Trucks, buses, cars and trains! Alex and Evan play a game in the car. Alex points to a house and says "Is that a bus?", Evan replies "Noooo, house". They continue naming objects and then when they pass a bus...everyone goes crazy. It's quite funny.
His teacher says Evan is very observant and good about telling her he's wet or went Beep-Beep (#2). A few of the kids in his class are using the potty. So, I have ordered a potty training book and bought a potty today. He's still only 2 so, I'm not expecting any miracles. But, he's the one talking about it, so I figured we could explore the potty and play with it!
