markers

pete asleep on the couch. he sleeps with eyes open half the time :)

yesterday i got out a big piece of paper and some markers and let jack go to town. he tried to trace his foot and his hand. he actually did pretty good at tracing his hand.

then i thought i would have a teaching moment! i drew a triangle and asked what it was and he said triangle (except not that clearly). then i drew a circle and asked what it was and he said circle. then i drew a oval and asked what it was and he said oval just as plain as day. finally i drew a square and asked what it was and he said "fwear"

i wanted to see if he could draw a horizontal line and a vertical line. sure enough he can! i drew a line first and asked if he could do it. and he did. then i asked if he could draw a circle and he did (well kind of)...
(my lines are pink and his are purple)

he is amazing! i am so proud to be his mom!
