Gettin' It

I swear Liam is SO SMART... today, as we were coming downstairs from his nap, we heard an airplane, so he starts saying, "Eh-lane! Eh-lane! Eh-lane!" I responded, "Yeah, Buddy, I hear the airplane, too!" Then he starts pointing to a window and says, "Ky! Ky!" Because I wasn't 100 percent sure if this is what he meant, I asked, "Sky? The airplane's in the sky?" To which he responded a very confident, "Yep." How quickly he associates things just amazes me! Every day he comes up with something new, I swear! Every. Single. Day.

On that same topic... Last night, we were reading a book, "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" (a current favorite of Liam's and one of my personal favorites) in Liam's room. Both kids were sitting on my lap in the rocking chair, and I read one page that goes something like, "Does a man live on the moon? And did he see the dish and spoon?" Maya seemed kind of confused and questioned about the dish and spoon, so I recited "Hey Diddle Diddle" to her to help her understand. As soon as I said, ".... and the dish ran away with the spoon," she goes, "Oooooooh! Now I get it!!" It was definitely an "aha" moment and SO very cute!
