Imaginiation

It's the best just to sit back and watch/listen to what Tytus is thinking and making up. It ranges all the way from mimicking familiar situations (like feeding his stuffed animals and putting blankets on them for their naps) to new funny scenarios. One day last week he brought out his bag of blocks and started building a city without saying anything or asking for help. I asked him what he was doing and he described a house, a bridge, and showed me where the train goes through. He made the sounds and everything, so I had to take a picture. :)

So proud!

Last weekend we spent most of Saturday running errands. One of the last stops we made was Sams to get some new tires for Ian's car. We dropped off the car and walked around while they worked on it. After we checked out they were still finishing up, so Ian held Tytus up to look through the windows to check out what was going on. We talked about how the wheels were old, how they lift the car up to work on it, and that the new wheels will be safer to drive on now. Since then it has been a part of our daily conversation to talk about daddy's new wheels. Usually he says "NEW WHEELS" with a huge smile and his hands up in the air. He's reenacted it several times with different tools and props....one day with his tricycle, another with his little green truck, even out in the sandbox with his little diggers.
