The boys are doing well in school, as far as I can tell. Stephen tells me school is awesome, he’s trying to write number sentences (that’s addition problems for you non teaching folk) and he tells me he’s cool. As long as he’s learning and likes school I think we’re heading in the right direction. I love that he thinks school is awesome, I hope he continues his love of learning.
Freddy says he likes school, but when I ask him what he did that day, he says he doesn’t know. He says with pride, that he goes to school. Then at random times he sings some songs from school. He’s not ready to tell me right away what he’s done but plays his card a little at a time. We’re proud of our boys!
Theo is amazing. He’s 9 months and crawling everywhere, he’s pulling himself up on anything stationary. Sometimes that’s not a great idea, like when he pulls himself up on the water table and it falls over on him. He’s shown me he’s growing up by knocking over a box of ’cheese its’ and then eating one. And why am I buying the super expensive baby cereal bites, if he can eat ‘cheese its’? I remember a similar incident with Freddy, Stephen was ’sharing’ and gave Freddy a pretzel, which Freddy promptly ate. So maybe it’s time to move on towards some more table food for the little man. I’ll keep you posted!

It’s hard- another sign of your baby growing up! Katie still has some of her favorite “baby” foods that I still give her, but she loved “grown up” food and still does- there is nothing she doesn’t like (so far). Good for Theo for giving you the *sign*!
