The puzzle master

If you are wondering what Simon thinks about, dreams about, and does with his spare time, it's this. Over and over again.

Screamy scream scream

We all have our days, here is Simon having one of his. He's on his way home from daycare with Da-Da, doesn't want to ride in the stroller, doesn't want to walk. He's almost 30 pounds now, so carrying his squirmy butt five blocks home is out of the question.

Warning: if you don't want to hear a toddler scream for 30 seconds, do not play this video. Is it wrong that I find it a little bit funny?

¡Vamos!

Some of Simon's Spanish words are starting to appear in conversation. They speak 90% Spanish at his daycare, and the kids are asked to respond in Spanish as well. We have no idea what he does or doesn't know in Spanish, and it's a delightful surprise when we hear a new word. A few days ago I didn't move quick enough to the request for "milk" so he tried "leche" instead. When that worked, he said "¡Gracias!" My favorite so far is when he comes in the room and wants me to go with him somewhere, he says "¡Vamos!" Luckily, Michael and I can both handle preschool level Spanish.

We got a new camera, but between our incompetence at using it and it being cold and flu season (with accompanying snot) we don't have very many good pictures yet...
