TAT - Things I Actually Say
I'm joining up with Melissa over at Growing Up Geeky for this week's Toddle Along Tuesday. Today's topic is "Things I Actually Say". In no particular order:
Jumping back in
It's been several months since I last blogged. Family, work, LIFE...they just all got in the way. I started this blog as a way to document our life together. I still want to do that. Some things have happened recently that have caused me to "wake up" and realize that I don't want to forget anything about my life, my life with Honey Bee or the lives of my baby bees. Life's just too short.
What's new at the beehive? Well, Princess Bee is now 7. We had her "Sweet Shoppe" birthday party just this past weekend at the local park. There was cake, ice cream, and a candy bar for all the guests. The candy bar had old time candy -- wax bottles, thin sticks, whirly suckers, cotton candy, gumballs. It was a big hit!
The little bees are doing well. They are 18 months old and into everything. Chunky Bee is around 23 pounds and is on the go. He's walking everywhere (he can even walk backwards!). He has 2 teeth and is working hard on several more. He isn't a big talker, but says "da-da", "hey", "uh-oh" and "tank tank" (thank you) on a regular basis. No "momma" yet, but it's not for a lack of trying on my part.
Itty Bitty isn't so itty bitty any more. He's around 21 pounds. It's amazing to compare pictures from this time last year to now. I sometimes forget how small he really was. He's crawling everywhere, pulling up and cruising along furniture and starting to stand independently for longer periods of time. His PT thinks he will be walking very soon! He's my talker -- he babbles nonstop. And shrieks. Very loudly! He can say "da-da", "bye bye" and "uh-oh".
Something that we started doing with both boys was simple sign language. Since they are at risk for being delayed and because boys generally talk later than girls, we thought it would be good to help them communicate without words. Chunky uses more signs than Itty Bitty, but we consistently use "more", "please", "thank you", and "bath" with them. It's one of the cutest things you'll ever see. If you're interested in sign language for your little one, check out Baby Sign Language.
More to come. Soon!
