It doesn't seem like this Easter will be remembered any more than last year's for Colin. He enjoyed looking at the stuff the Easter Bunny gave him. The Easter Bunny then made a mess of eggs outside, which Colin had to clean up. Fortunately Colin enjoys cleaning up. He was able to help dye eggs and try some Easter candy. Those were enjoyable. In his words; "good".
It's amazing how his vocabulary is growing now. He really wants to be able to say words. He will study our mouths and try and mimic us. He'll try a couple new ones each day. A toddler translator is still needed for some words but he is definitely able to communicate by speaking now. During tantrums... that's another story. We aren't sure if he's not able to think about words while in tantrum mode or if he is just being purposely stubborn.
Time-outs have begun. Weeeeee. It can take 5-10 minutes to get an apology or a "yes" from Colin. He isn't going around doing evil deeds, yet. The main reasons for the time-outs is that he has started choosing if he listens to us and harassing Hobie.
Colin recognizes the letter W or "double" and the number 4 or "fo". Watch out Sesame Street. You can find him running laps around the kitchen table. Hobie will give him a lick on the face for each lap, to help count...
Spring seems to be making its way in slowly so hopefully that means a lot more time outside in the future.
