Yes, I've been horrid at keeping up the blog. Something like that. Seems blogger lacks such fun tidbits like Family Feud, (Facebook) which has been sucking up my free time. That and cleaning. (which should translate as throwing away anything it seems we don't use)
Just when you think you're making progress - from earlier tonight:
Picture Audrey holding a lego. I'm trying to teach them how legos can go back in the container, rather than spreading them around the house like wildfire. Between the sickness lately and all, my living room is more an odd cross between a Toys-R-Us and a Walgreens.
Me - "Audrey, can we put the lego back in the box?" (I demonstrate with another lego)
Audrey, looking right at me "Puh in bah?"
Me - "Yeah, put it in the box"
Audrey, looking now at the lego. "Puh in bah!"
Me - "yup, yup, let's put it in the box"
Audrey, clear as day. "No"
Audrey walks off with the lego.
And I thought we were so close.
LOL! She is too funny!
ReplyDeleteYeah, we haven't even tried to get the girls to put away their toys. Addison has a fetish with throwing every toy out of her toy box for no good reason so that is always fun to clean up. They will be good about handing me all of their bath toys to put away while they are still in the bath. That is the only progress we have made. I hope they start to "get" it soon. Keep trying.
ReplyDeleteThat totally made me giggle! I know it's not funny, funny, but it is so very cute!
ReplyDeleteLife with a toddler...too funny! I think it's funnier because we all can relate!
ReplyDeleteWow - impressive that she could repeat your sentence! In our class, they sing a "clean up song" and Micah has learned to put things away there...of course, at home when I sing the clean up song, he stops, listens, smiles...and claps! - Tkeys
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI think it's so funny that our girls have started shaking their heads for yes and no, and beginning to say "uh uh" (for no). It is super cute, but there are times when that's not the desired response!
ReplyDeleteYou gotta love the freedom of choice. LOL! Very cute! :-)
