I was changing Alex’s diaper this morning and we heard Robert’s toy sing the A,B,C’s. I started to sing along and after the song was over, Alex clapped for me and said, “yay!”
Alex fell over and hit his head and started to cry. Robert rushed over and asked Alex what was wrong. Christopher told Robert that Alex hurt himself. Robert helped Alex sit up and gave him a car. Alex started to smile and giggle and Robert got him another car. No more tears after that.
Last night Christopher and I went on a date and left the boys with a babysitter. This morning I asked Robert, “Were you good for Miss Rachel last night?” Robert replied, “Ummmmmm, yes I was.”
I was searching for Alex’s musical toy and I knew that I saw it last with Robert some time last night. I asked Robert, “Robert, do you know where Alex’s music toy is?” Robert said, “Ummmmm Yes.” I said, “Okay, where is it?” Robert reached down and picked it up and handed it to Alex.
Robert dissolved into tears when the babysitter came over last night. He knew that I was about to leave him. This morning when Christopher got Robert out of bed Robert made sure that the babysitter had left and that Mommy was at home and then said, “My diaper is vewy vewy wet.”
Robert was coloring at the table this morning. Alex crawled over and started babbling. Robert asked, “Algis, what talkin’ about?”
Christopher likes to play the game Angry Birds on his phone and Robert loves to watch. Robert saw Christopher’s phone on the table, brought it to Christopher and said, “Watch birds? Watch birds?” So Christopher started to play while Robert made comments: “Wow! Crash! It fell down!”
I am so blessed to stay home with these precious boys and never miss out on all these cute times. They are growing so fast and learning so much.
