Family Updates!

Things with our family are happening fast and furious, so I thought I would sent out a quick update on the kids:

Jaysen is getting to be such a big boy! Since getting his tubes, he is speaking so clearly, and in complete sentences....its crazy some of the things he says! Here are just a few examples:

I CANNOT go to bed yet!
No Dawsen, that's not yours, it's mine!
Why no...I don't want to eat yet!

Also, at school, Jaysen has been learning lots of new things. Because he was acting out some and seemed quite bored in his class, his teacher has decided to try him out during the morning circle / academic time with the Pre-K kiddos, who are all 2 years older than him. I was a little hesitant at first, as I wasn't sure that he was socially ready for this, but they say he sits quietly, intently listens, and actively participates! In fact, he has been telling me words that start with certain letters, and he is so clever about it. When asked what E stands for, he thinks for a minute and says "Peacock!" When I said, "E doesn't stand for Peacock", he says, "Well....let me think...It does NOT stand for elephant!" and he runs off laughing! He is such a mess!! He also came home the other day, looked up at the ceiling, and said: "red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple....its a rainbow!" I asked at school the next day who was studying rainbows, and they told me that they talked about them in the Pre-K class, but not for long at all! I swear, that kid and his memory absolutely amaze me!!

Dawsen is changing daily as well. He has started getting in to everything, and wants whatever his brother has! If he had his way, he would be with Jaysen all the time. He is just about walking....I don't think it will be long at all. And he has started saying a few more words. He now says: bye-bye, more, mama, daddy, and ball. Such a little man!

Anyway, I'll update more later.....talk to you soon~
