Colors...

The boys have been learning their colors!

Last week, Lincoln learned that monkeys are brown (and just to update you....he now knows they eat bananas too - I hear it every time I ask him if he wants a banana!).

After that, the boys started telling us what color their spoons or forks are - green, orange, blue, yellow.  Most of the time they get them right too!

This is coming in very handy, as the boys received a "Tot Clock" for their birthday.  It is a clock that you can set for different times of the day, and it changes color.  It is blue at night when it's time to go to bed, and yellow in the morning when it's time to get up.  You can also turn it red for time out, and other settings too (Brian and I are still figuring it out).

One morning last week, after we changed the boys diapers, we headed back into their room to pick out their clothes.  The clock had changed since the boys got up, but it didn't get past Jackson.  He looked at the clock, pointed to it, and said "Clock - yellow!".  I let him know he was correct, and he was a good boy, and that yellow meant it was time to be up!  He was so proud and excited! 

Guess we need to figure out all the settings on the clock and start using it more.  The boys just LOVE it!
