Busy

That's a lie. I don't even know what we've been doing lately, so I have no excuse for not blogging other than we haven't been doing anything exciting to blog about. Let's see...Amery is in a Superman phase right now. Jon puts the movie on, and when the song starts he runs around the house with two outstretched fists. We really need a video. He's becoming a little smarty pants more and more each day. He knows (from daycare I assume) how to count to six in Spanish. Oh, and when I pointed out the other day that his wooden train tracks were in a circle he corrected me, "No mama, oval." Geez.

I'll try to keep better mental notes of when something cool actually happens. Until then, stay cool.

Playdate

Amery had a fabulous playdate with the even more fabulous Ruby today. Since sharing toys isn't a two-year-old's forte, I started talking with him the day before about how Ruby was coming over to play.

Me: Amery, are you going to share your trains with Ruby tomorrow?
A: Share trains, mama.
Me: Are you going to share your cars?
A: Share cars, mama.
Me: Are you going to share your books?
A: No share books, mama.
Me: Why aren't you going to share your books?
A: No share books, MAMA!
Me: Are you going to share your puzzles?
A: Share puzzles, mama.
Me: Are you going to share your books?
A: NO, MAMA!
Me: Jeez, ok dude.

In the end he shared the books, but I have no idea what spawned the initial freakout over the damn books. Weirdo. He shared his Learning Tower for a Cheerios break too:
