2 months
























so its been 2 months since i started watching these two munchkins 4 days a week..
Its been a really fun 2 months.
the kids are cute and for the most part very fun.
we go to the park just about every day.
each day they each get to watch one show ( they watch one show at different times)
abbie still takes 2 naps a day, but henry 99% of the time only takes one,
which I am okay wtih because if he takes the morning nap he is cranky all day and is HARD to get down in the afternoon.
We have recently, bought smoe chalk and Henry loves it. he will draw on the cement for a long time. he ends up covered in chalk every time we play.
Abbie doesn't quite get the concept of drawing but she enjoys taking ALL the pieces in and out of the little bucket they came in.
Meals times have been an adventure lately because Henry seems against eating just about anything other than fruit. The parents say he does it for them to so its not just me, but the kids has to eat.
Play time inside is fun, we play with their shape sorter and the ride on cars have made their way in the house so they love riding them around.
It seems that the running around the island in the kitchen is gone for now but thats alright.
we go to the park almost daily and they both seem very happy going up the stairs down the slide over and over again( which is good, they tire themselves out). THey also love walking up and down the grass hill and playing on the baseball diamond that is there as well.
Usually Henry doesn't take the morning nap so that is when he watches is one show a day and then him and I have some one on one play time which is nice. In the afternoon Henry generally sleeps until at least 5 so when Abbie wakes up around 4 we go and she gets to watch a show while she wakes up compeltely. And then we usually end up singing some songs and she loves it if she can make her feet clap together.
it has been a really fun two months and this month they have both gotten a lot more words:
Henry: up, ball, truck, cracker, and he has learned: bye, hi, phone, up-oh, woah, ruff ruff, quack quack, duck, slide, swing, chalk, bunny, book, berry, and see you later.
Abbie: has learned quack quack, ruff ruff, bye bye( but doesn't get when to use it), dirt, berry...thats all i remember at the moment.
anyway..

I still love the job. kids and parents are still cool. excited to continue.
