Colors and Flys


This week at baby school we continued our study of colors.  We all made tie-dye shirts (or at least attempted, see my creation above). 

At Speech class our book this week was "There was an old lady who swallowed a fly"  We worked on the letter L : Laundry, lawyer, lazy, lemon, leopard, letter, lettuce, lifeguard and lighthouse.

Mommy had a chance to talk to my speech teacher this week about my progress.  She said she is very happy with my speech progress, I am talking much more and it is becoming clearer.  Also she is impressed with how well I know the books we focus on each week.  When the class acts out the books I am always telling the class what comes next in the story since I have read them so many times at home.    One area that I have shown progress on but still need a lot of work is just sitting still.  I am constantly in motion - running around, bouncing up and down in the chair, etc - sometimes my teacher has me hold a weighted pillow in circle time to try and keep me calmer.  Mommy and Daddy have also seen this first hand at gymnastics class - most of the time I am just running around and jumping and swinging while the other kids are sitting against the wall waiting their turn.

If I remember correctly, Daddy had trouble sitting still, too.
