Levi - 10 months

Oh my little "free bird..."

Levi wants freedom, and lots of it.  He wants to walk from object to object, wants to climb stairs, and wants to stand on his own.  He takes a step or two but then falls.  He doesn't like sitting in the exersaucers or jumpy toys.  He wants to be out and about.  He doesn't seems to want to sit and learn or read books like Isaac.  However he does enjoy sitting and putting objects in buckets like our bucket of eggs he will put them in one by one  He takes no interest in "looking" at books.  But he loves to stand at the bookshelf and pull them all down.  He goes to bed without any hassle.  He tells you when he's tired and he wants to go to bed...right then.  He has for top teeth and 2 bottom teeth and loved to chew people food.  He loves holding crackers and eating them bite by bite!

Isaac - 28 months

Isaac continues to love to learn.  Things we've been working on are tracing shapes and letters (struggles but tries), singing songs, telling time on the hour with analog clocks, and he can now identify all his letters and numbers up to 10.

He loves to be held, snuggled, and his back rubbed when going to bed.  He has picked up saying (and repeating), "I need Mom" when I try to leave the room at naptime or bedtime.  He climbs around all the playground equipment and has begun to do somersaults at home now.  He has been attending gymnastics once a week and definitely is not as coordinated as the little girls there and is ready to just play in the foam pit at the end of the session.  He gets bored with the circuits that they have him do, but he has the cutest, "Ta-Da!"
