We have been waiting for Taylor to take some interest in letters/numbers for quite some time. We obviously know that it is not healthy to compare, but Hailey knew all of her letters and numbers before the age of two. Taylor could have cared less until recently; she is now noticing letters all around her. I do think that she knew them well before I knew that she knew them. Her initial response when I ask her what letter it is "I don't know." If I wait and ask again she always knows it as if she needed to show me in her own time; on her own terms. Should I really be surprised by this?Carter is finally showing some progress with walking. He has now mastered crawling to such a degree that he is wearing holes in his pants and crawling backwards at the same speed as forward. He knows that we are excited for him to start walking, so much that if he stands up, he waits for us to watch, and claps for himself before he even begins. His other adorable skill is the stairs. He knows that he needs to turn around at the top of the stairs in order to crawl down backwards. He knows this so well that some times he is backing up a good five feet away from the top of the stairs.
Our winter game of choice is football downstairs. We get all of the toys picked up and then it begins, however it always ends in tears.
