helmet day


Again it was one of those days when he felt safer walking around his room in his bicycle helmet. He wasn't wearing pants, but a helmet was necessary. He has a strange fashion sense! Or maybe I'm not dialed in to how hip it is to wear a helmet with a diaper.

We learned our first alphabet letter today, the letter "O". I pointed to it on a block and told him what it was, and he found several other blocks that also had "O" on them and pointed them out. He pointed to the "O" on his bed sheet as well, and to the "O" on his alphabet wall hanging. I didn't know if he would retain this at all, but when David came home, without any prompting other than my silently holding up a block, he started pointing out "O"s (and saying "O") to his Daddy. Wow. Wonder what letter we'll learn tomorrow.

As always, we did our 'cow says moo, sheep says baa, owl says who, horse says neigh' conversation tonight with Gran on the speakerphone. She asked him what a snake says and he said "apple". I guess he's been reading Genesis at night when we think he's asleep!
