JT got a couple of new puzzles from his older friend Eli and he loves them. One is a Thomas puzzle and it has 25 pieces. JT can do the entire thing by himself. I think that’s pretty awesome!
The other puzzle is an alphabet train. This is perfect because JT knows about half of his letters by sight and is learning more all the time. He loves to get the whole train together and then sing the alphabet song.
He is now fascinated with clocks. I think maybe Grandma Cole taught him to look at the clock in our kitchen because I came home one day and when it was bed time he said, “because the big hand is pointing to the top?” Way to go, Grandma Cole! I got him a book about time with a moveable clock in the back and he’s started making the hands point to different times.
JT is getting pretty good at writing his name. I have to remember that he is TWO after all, and not get on him for putting it in the wrong order or backwards. Here you can see at the tail of the helicopter his T and to the right of it his backwards J. He does write them in order J, T but he puts the T on the left. Today we worked on dot-to-dot letters and he made a very nice A.
JT loves to carry things around in his Harley with him. The other day, I said to him, “You need some saddle bags.” Jim had a great idea to attach the small part of his Harley rig pack to JT’s bike, and now he has his own rig pack. Non-motorcycle people may call it a trunk, but we know what it really is. I find all sorts of things in JT’s rig pack now. 🙂
