Colorful Counting

For "One Fish, Two Fish" we have been playing with numbers and colors and having a great time! Trenton and I found this fun M&M brand candy counting book at the library and then had to buy M&Ms to count along with the book! Oh, and then Trent & Tyler ate them...and loved every bite! We filled a jar with Swedish fish and made up a chart (that counts in 2's) and have been having everyone who comes to our house guess how many fish are in the jar. So, if you want to stop by and put a sticker on the chart, we'd love to have you!
And then we are watching a celery stalk pick up color from the water we're giving it. The leaves and stalks have changed a lot more now. I guess I should get a picture of that too! And my cute little Trenton man is reading! He's so cute how excited about it he is. He's been reading these small readers a lot, but we have also been having him read out of the scriptures. It's so fun to watch him get so excited about following along and being able to read every couple words. He's starting to see words he knows everywhere and things he doesn't he's trying to sound out or he just asks what it says. Maybe soon I can get him to read to me! It's a lot like Tyler picking up all the sounds/recognizing the alphabet...I would never make a child learn that young, but when they are soaking it all up and asking for more, I surely want to give it to them. Sometimes I don't feel like I'm quite keeping up with them.
