Sam is really into the Black Stallion lately, which is one of Emily's favorites (key scenes are the horse on the boat, the horse killing a snake, and the final race). Below is Sam's drawing from tonight of "Boy with Helmet on Black Stallion" (SPS 1/17/2012) And when Emily told Samuel that horses eat carrots, he asked for a carrot to eat tonight.
Sam's teacher wrote in his book recently that he's coming along his drawing, and Sam really does draw at home a lot now. It's funny how the motor skills seem to click into place at certain points.
Eli can now almost say "all done" or something like it, and Eva says "night night" (pronounced "nai nai"). Eva can climb up on the couch on her own, although she's not as graceful getting down. Eli can climb up on the table from a chair! Obviously, this is something we discourage. Since our own changes often seem so small, it's fun to watch the kids making such obvious advances and so many new discoveries.
