Now I Know My ABC's

Wow - it's March already! I have been meaning to post some new pics on here for awhile now but for one reason or another I just haven't had a chance to do so. Scott is out tonight so I am taking advantage of the computer time so be prepared - I will be making a few posts.

Mason now knows all of his capital letters (he has for about 3 weeks now), can count to 12 (and with help to 20) and he can recognize the numbers 1 through 9. He loves to colour (although his attention span is only for a few minutes), watch Treehouse programs (I was so set on his not watching TV but that didn't last), play outside, give hugs and kisses and so many other things that I just couldn't possibly list them all. Marching wherever he goes is also so much fun - he likes to say "march, march" while strutting around with high knees. He has finally learned how to throw a ball so I am so glad that the weather is starting to get warmer so that he can perfect his technique outside rather than inside where he loves to throw one ball after the other across the living room.

These two video clips are of Mason identifying some of his letters while in the tub. (I seem to have so many video clips and pictures of him in the tub - it must be because that is the only time that he will stay relatively still in one place.) In the second video you will see him identify "W" as both "W" and "M" - it is so funny to see him do this and also quite amazing that he recognizes that you can turn the letter upside down to create another. The first time he did this was with an "M" written on a piece of paper, he turned his entire upper body upside down and then said "W"-it was pretty funny!

Hope you enjoy :)

Great clip April, keep'm comin'. I love the photo's you post (because I can download them) but you can't beat the vid clips where you can actually hear what Mason is saying.
