The summer is just flying by! I can hardly believe it.
The boys are doing great. Corbin graduated from therapies for the summer. We will resume them in the fall, but it has been great not having to rush around twice a week and drag the kids out of bed.
Corbin is really into popular music right now. He will hear a song and become fixated on it until he knows each and every word. He knows more pop music than I do. He really loves Katy Perry songs. His favorites are "Part of Me" and "Firework."
He also is the king of negotiations. He will bargain for everything! He could easily be a salesman, because he is stubborn and convincing. Famous lines include, "Come on- that is not the deal; here's the deal..."
Corbin has made significant strides in his eating. It takes a lot of negotiating, but he eats all meats, most fruits and will try some vegetables now. That is huge! I no longer make a separate meal. It can be hard some nights, but it is worth it.
Cameron has language nearly mastered. He speaks pretty clearly, and in compound sentences. He is an excellent cuddler, and he is (for the most part) considerate and takes direction well. We did have a recent scare with him over at Grandma and Grandpa's pool, but he is absolutely fine now. He will still swim in the pool, but he hates going under water now. He is going to be a great swimmer, I think. He kicks and moves really well, but he can't do it without floaties yet.
Jameson has this thing right now where he likes to introduce himself. "Hi, I'm Jameson!" we have come to the conclusion that he prefers his full name and not his nickname. He loves attention, even if it is negative. I've learned that he does well with redirection because he loves to be noticed. Today, I had him organize the K cups in the drawer and then empty the boxes into a main box. He felt very useful.
He is very considerate and sensitive, too. We are very lucky to have 3 sweet boys.
It has been a hot summer, and we have been spending a lot of time in the water. Whether it is in grandma & Grandpa's new pool, our water table or slip n slide or at a lake, we've been happy to have so many spare swimsuits.
I love how active these little boys are!
One hot day, we painted outside in the back. It was great because the mess stayed outdoors, and then I hosed them off.
Look what Corbin made!
War paint!
