James was giving Ian a bath tonight and all of the sudden started calling for me. I hurried in to Ian's bathroom, not sure what to expect. A fun little surprise awaited me. Ian had spelled his first word! Fortunately, he was happy to show off his newfound skill to Momma so I could take pictures!
Can you tell what he is spelling?
Bet you guessed by now!
Yup! I guess we should be proud. Our child can spell "no" as well as say it!
Okay, so it was random luck that the first two letters he grabbed tonight happened to make a word (although we have been working on letters and their sounds). Actually, I'm a bit relieved it was so random...otherwise we'd really be in for it!
At least we know Ian is enjoying his baths! Teething is still pretty hard on him, although he only woke up once last night and actually went back to sleep pretty quickly. James was super sweet and let me sleep in this morning. When my turn was up, James came back to bed for a nap at 10am. Ian climbed in bed with us and before I knew it, he had fallen asleep cuddling with me! He NEVER takes a nap that early in the morning and rarely ever falls asleep in our bed, especially in the middle of the day! After I got up from my extra nap time (an hour and half later!!), I took a picture of him snoozing.
So sweet! And just what Momma needed today. Well, little man, I'm sure we will have more adventures tomorrow. Perhaps you can learn to spell "Yes, Mommy"! :-)
