Granny Sue Plays Easter Bunny, Part II

Here’s some recent news: On April 21st, Ian counted to eleven… and then started back at eight. If you listen carefully to him doing this, you can tell why he does so… eleven sounds like seven… so he ends up in a loop! 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 8, 9, 10…

April 21st was also a major step forward on the manners front… we’re hearing please without request sometimes!

And now back to Grandma Sue’s visit!!

Empty wipe tubs recycled here as a sort of skating shoe… he came up with this on his own. See this image larger.

Ian’s “all done!” gesture, captured by his mommy! He’s done playing this iPhone game. See this image larger.

Here is part of why Ian got so attached to Grandma Sue… she read him bedtime stories! (I’ve got to mention that it was funny the night we forgot Granny’s glasses downstairs… we quietly fed her the lines of each book… which Melissa and I have apparently memorized!) See this image larger.

Toward the end of her trip, Ian had Grandma pretty well trained — and I wanted it to always be Grandma’s turn to read! See this image larger.

Shocking how big our little boy is already! See this image larger.

It’s easy to lose track of some of the things that happened, but around here the audio clip I posted earlier happened, when he counted to 10 and talked about recycling.
