Sunday afternoon, just got the kids put down for their nap. Hanna was tired, I held her and rocked her and she fell asleep while I was holding her. She doesn't often do that.
It just will not warm up around here. The sun is out today, and but only 70 degrees or so, so a bit cool in the shade. Yesterday it was cloudy all day and I barely got the lawn mowed and it rained for a couple hours.
John is saying so many things now, I wonder where he gets them all. When I say he can go pick out a book, he'll say "hmmm.." Or if he doesn't want something he'll say nnnooooo in a cute way. He sometimes reminds me of the way Lisanne will say no, in her tone of voice. Like if you ask her if her name is Henry, she'll say nnooooo, John kinda sounds that way.
Sometimes he'll do something that can get annoying. We try to give him choices, and sometimes he'll pick one, you'll give it, and then he'll say no, he wants the other, you give him that, and he says no, he wants the first thing, etc... One day I asked him if he wanted Thomas music or Winnie the Pooh. He said Pooh, so I played that Cd. And all flustered, he said no, he wanted Thomas. So I put in Thomas. Nooo, all teary he wanted Pooh. He did this two or three more times. I was trying to judge, ok, what is more annoying, to listen to him complain that he wanted the other cd and just leave the first one in, or keep changing them. Ha.
Hanna is understanding more and more too. Yesterday I was sitting in the living room, she was there and I asked if she wanted some milk. And all by herself she immediately trotted off to the fridge. John and Hanna play nice together a lot too. When Sesame Street ends, and there is that dancing part, John likes to dance, and Hanna will just giggle and giggle and turn herself around, etc...
