Just a little catch up...

Well Kenner has amazed me again - he can count to ten with a bit of help. He gets very excited about the numbers five and nine. Its too cute. He is recognizing more and more numbers when we are out and about. I am so proud of him.

Today while in pool therapy he decided that he could put his face in the water to blow bubbles. He had refused to do that just last week. Perhaps there was some extra "brave" in his yogurt this morning.

I wonder if he is in to trying more new things if we are going to branch out go out on a limb and give pasta a spin. That sure would make meal planning that much easier.

In the world of music everything is an instrument! He plays a mean air guitar with dancing moves too. He plays his harmonica in the car. He is playing the piano now with varying rythms and loudness. I think in a few we will look into Holy Names Music Academy...

A trip to the movies...

Today we decided to go to a movie with some friends. The attendees were Kenner, Ammi (aka Grammy), Jan, Lindsay (aka Giggles), Melinda and I. We went to see 'The Princess and the Frog.' Pretty good movie - a bit scarry with the voo-doo stuff but the music was good.

As we were saying our goodbyes outside the theatre Kenner of course was being cute. I went to get the car. And this is where everything went array. He saw me pull up. Waved bye to everyone. Opened the front passenger side door, hopped in, put on his seat belt - all with intermittent waves and goodbyes to the ladies standing on the sidewalk cracking up. When Ammi requested her seat he said, simply, "No." And looked at her as if to say, "Ammi I called shot gun. Now suck it up and get in the back."

So being my mother she did. Which of course made the ladies laugh that much harder. And even harder yet when mom stated proudly, "Hey my butt fits in the car seat! Hot Dog!" Only my family!

That's ok I would trade either one of them. I am just glad that the parking lot wasn't more crowded or the fact that I didn't notice the public noticing this spectacle!
