Art with Markers (and other random things!)

Caydin has been soooo into coloring with markers lately.  Somedays, he will try so hard to get into his booster chair so that he can do markers at the kitchen table.  Once in his chair, he will sit for a really long time and color scribble away.  He really likes the coloring book he got from his bestest because the pictures are all vehicle related and not so busy (just one picture per page!)

He can now correctly identify things that are yellow and brown (most of the time!)  For awhile there, EVERYTHING was always yellow (and I mean EVERYTHING!) so we were starting to wonder if he was color-blind or something... but he is starting to say lots of color words.  Now things are usually always yellow first, then he'll say white, black, red, or green.  

We also know that Caydin can count to 9 (though he usually leaves off the number 4) and does a really good job at counting objects.  

He will tell me if things are big or little (usually he will say "baby" for little).  

He picks out what shirt he wants and is picky with his socks.  Today I grabbed plain ol' white socks and his shoes and asked him to come sit down.  He didn't listen and instead went to pick out a green pair of football socks (they didn't match AT ALL!)  Then sat down nicely and let me put his socks and shoes on!

He is getting to be a very demanding little guy! "Mommy come play." "Daddy this way." "Kitty cat come down!" "No, that way."  "Mommy outside."  "Daddy read book." .... are all pretty common phrases around our house!

Now for marker pictures!
