Isabel talking

I had to post about Isabel and her talking skillz. She's really starting to put words together and it's so cute to watch her search her brain for the right word. Last night she was trying to tell Brian that we had to cut Tank's walk short because he pooped on the leash and we needed to wash it. This is what came out. Ank (Tank) wak (walk) eesh (leash) poop (she's got that word down) ash (wash). She has to pause a second between each word to think about it, but you can really see her vocabulary and verbal skills building. It's hard not to compare your kids to other kids and we all know that each child develops differently, etc etc. Einstein didn't talk until he was 3, blah blah blah, but we all do it anyway. I've been getting updates on FB and other blog sites about how Isabel's friends are talking and what they're saying and it's been going on for a LONG time. I was starting to think that maybe Isabel was a little behind the curve. We recently saw some of these genius kids. I'm not saying that the moms are making this stuff up that they post, I'll just say that Isabel does not appear to be behind her peers. One little toddler really is ahead of the curve and just makes everyone else look a little slow. :) We've also been practicing our counting. Isabel does a good job of 3-10 and then makes some sounds for the teens. She's like 'shehs-teen' bloobloo-teen' 'mmmeee-teen.' Pretty cute. It's funny to hear her copy the inflections in my voice.

Logan likes to do somersaults all over the place. He gets up on his feet, puts his hands down by his head and puts the crown of his head on the floor and then waits for us to flip him over. He's do this anywhere. We try to move him to the carpet or run before his acrobatic tricks, but sometimes he will not be denied. He loves to dance, especially when he makes a toy turn on and play music.
