Today our little guy started to use his pointer finger more, singing "buenos Dias". And then, he finally touched his own nose!
On Christmas night he let go while standing in his crib and balanced for a moment on his own! Good things are waiting for us in 2013.

Tis the season

Play with my babies

Searching for inspiration for more sensory play with Liam and fun for Lupe, especially with 4 or more days of rain! Now Liam, he puts everything in his mouth. So I could play with oatmeal, flax, dried beans, but if I watch him carefully. Play dough? Homemade wouldn't harm him if ingested, so that is what we made tonight, spur of the moment, with kool aid for color and smell. Papa came out of the shower and found us making mess all over the kitchen floor!
What shall we try tomorrow? Edible finger paint?
Lupe loves when Liam goes to bed BEFORE her and if she cleans up while I nurse him to sleep, then she gets to choose an activity to do together, just the two of us. So tonight we drew a picture together, of a princess of course.
