Concepts
Logan and Forest are starting to get into what I would call communication concepts. Although I’m sure there is specific word for it, I just have no clue what it’s called so I’m saying “concepts.” Such as up and down. Logan is all about showing that he understands this as he pushes a toy under the water and saying “down” and then back up out of the water and saying “up”. Or as he runs his fingers up and down his sippy cup. Logan is using two words together more and more. Like “big track” or “big truck”. ‘Cus you know it’s all about modes of transportation around our house with two boys!
Forest has started becoming especially interested in nursery rhymes and songs. Although they still tend to tell me “no” when I start singing, Forest is suddenly starting to try and imitate me doing “Itsy Bitsy Spider”. He’ll ask me to do it again and again as he watches my hands and trys to move his fingers together. It makes my heart ache with joy. And tonight before bed Logan even joined in the spider finger fun!

Our guys are addicted to the Itsy Bitsy Spider. They request it by simply saying, “spider”. It’s so damn cute.
My dad and step-mom were here awhile back and started them on their spider love…and it’s been brewing ever since. Then, this week in the mail came two of those singing cards—the ones that scream “Rock around the clock” or whatever when it’s your birthday. The song was the Itsy Bitsy Spider. All I can say is, I am SO glad that my dad sent TWO otherwise there would be a lot of fights.
