Keeping Up with Ron, Sara, Jackson and Addie

Likes and Dislikes...

Jackson likes: coloring Easter eggs, putting sprinkles on Easter cookies, Go Diego Go, riding his tricycle, petting bunnies, doing "homework", helping daddy drill, making chocolate non-dairy shakes, pretending to cook, playing Simon Says, eating "cheese" burgers, washing dishes, playing with his airport.

Jackson does not like: being quiet in the bookstore and not getting enough sleep.

Counting in Spanish: I had just about given up on teaching Spanish numbers to Jackson when he was counting yo-yos in an Elmo book and said "Cinco, Seis." Yay! So we'll keep working on it.

Spanish vocab so far: Ojos (eyes), Pelo (hair), Boca (mouth), Hasta Luego (see you later), Gracias (thank you), Amigo (friend). I did get a Muzzy video from the library (geared at teaching toddlers Spanish), and had hoped he would enjoy it more but he thinks the Muzzy characters are "scary." Maybe Diego can teach him a thing or two.

I am going to have to remember to use "Simon says" the next time Jackson decides that he just is not going to sit in his car seat. He wasn't a bad boy, he just wasn't ready to sit there and needed some time to think about it. I guess it didn't help that Grandma was laughing because he was so cute.
