Their new thing.....

Their newest thing...

*said in the most crankiest of voices*

"No Thank you Mom!"

Ugh.

Can I have my sweet little boys back?!

I supposed I should be glad they're at least polite while they're totally coppin' an attitude....

But, latest updates:

Matt has grown all out of the Toddler stuff. He's now in 5/6. {EEK!}
Josh is in 4T and 4. {Double EEK!}

Matt can write "M" and we're working on the rest - "att" LOL. He can identify about 1/3rd of his alphabet. He can count up to 12 without mistakes. We're still working with him on his "teen" numbers. He gets really confused and doesn't understand...He can identify all his numbers - just not the combinations of "3 and 1" making "31". Again...still working on it! LOL He has a hard time with 6's and 9's. He mixes them up sometimes. But he's shown remarkable progress and he's just plain ol' smart. Mr. Smarty Pants I call him. :)

Josh can write a "J" and "O" (technically...it's just a circle...but still!) We're working on the "sh" now. He really likes to draw and has more of a knack than Matt. (Matt's definitely delayed in the "fine" motor skills side). He can count to 12 too. He skips "6" sometimes....but he's doing great otherwise. His development is neck and neck with Matt's. Josh is having some SEVERE temper tantrums. We're working on nipping those in the bud. They are so intense that at times, we have to restrain him - so he doesn't hurt himself or others. :( We're just trying to get through the "terrible 3's" with him - and teach him the necessary skills to cope....

They are both sooooo sociable. They love the park. They love to wrestle. They love to laugh, swing, climb, paint, draw, sing, play and dance.

We took them to the Children's Museum the other day....a first for all of us. Each had their favorites; Matt liked the building room and Josh liked the water room. (Go figure...LOL)

They're just amazing boys. They progress a lot - and then sometimes we have set backs....but for the most part, they are happy, loving, NORMAL little boys.

And we LOVE them!!!
