Rhyme Time

Sunday, April 19, 2009
Too bad I missed this Brynn crack-me-up. Matt told me this story about her. She has been so funny lately....

She has been learning to think of words that rhyme together and this is how a recent revelation went down:

Brynn: Daddy, Daddy!!
Matt: What sweetie?
Brynn: Orange and Orange rhyme together!
Matt: They do? Aren't they the same word?
Brynn: One is a tasty fruit and one is a color!


6 months

Monday, April 13, 2009
Well 6 1/2 months now. Derek is awesome as usual. At his checkup he weighed 19 lbs 15 ozs and 29 inches long. He's 80th percentile on weight and 100+ percentile on height. He's one tall boy. He really almost looks like a 10 to 12 month old! In the last two weeks he has started blowing raspberries, saying da-da sounds, smacking his lips, liking his belly more and slowly working on getting up on his knees. Since this weekend we tried the little cereal puffs and he absolutely loves them. He's still going through the mommy is best stage. Can't let him see me or it's a cry for momma!




Fridge-a-later

Brynn just cracked me up with this. She has always pronounced 'big' words very well but she has a few that she just doesn't get quite right. The refrigerator has always been called the fridgelator. I just found out why she calls it that. She wanted to put something in the fridge for later. You know mom, the fridge-e-lator....where you put your food for later. Hilarious.
