Our brains are growing :)

My Mom watched N&C yesterday while I was out and she read an ABC book to Celia one time before nap, and then to letter 'S' after nap. This girl is so smart. Each page has pictures that begin with the letter of the alphabet. Like the 'M' page would have: monkey, moon, milk, and map.
Well, after only hearing the book 2x Celia could point to certain pictures when asked. She knew to point to pineapple, ant, and monkey. I am not trying to brag about my daughter, just saying, I think she is a bright and quick learner.
Here she is with the same book:



And Nicholas is finding his boy-niche. He is truely enjoying Cars. He likes looking out the front window watching cars drive by periodically. And he found in a color book a picture of a car. So today he was holding the book open to the car page and also looking for cars at the same time. Quite a smart connection, I think. Its cute to see him like cars like some little boys do. :)


And just a picture of Nicholas being cute tonight after his nighttime bottle. :) At night he will cuddle and Celia is squirmy because she just wants to go to bed. :)

  1. They are so smart! That is such a good thing that they are associating objects with words. Kat & Brody are now starting to get into being read to and want me to read the same book over and over again. I love this stage as they are learning new things. And I love the cuddler picture, Brody is my cuddler too. If I even tried to cuddle with Kat she would play with my hair, twist and turn, and try to do a flip out of my arms :).

  2. No cuddling from either of my guys. :( They both try to "escape" while I smother them with kisses. I guess I need to have another and hope for a cuddler this time!

    Great about C and the book. Mine just laugh at the pictures and then eat the book. A few books have been torn in half too. Sad... :( Way to go N&C!!

  4. Celia looks so focused!

    Brandon is our cuddly baby too:) If we want to cuddle with Faith, we have to do it while she is sleeping and doesn't know. LOL
