Forks and Other News

Haley has become a fork expert. She’s pretty excited about it. My mom, in a stroke of genius, bought Haley some cocktail forks. They are perfectly sized and yet have enough stabbing power to pick up anything, including the steamed eggs she’s enjoying in this photo.

Haley is clearly gaining dexterity because the other thing she has been doing more is coloring. Correctly. Today I watched her hold the crayon in her right hand with proper form, and she carefully colored little spots and lines inside the picture lines. Super type A, and very impressive. She can take the caps off markers… dangerous!

JT and Jim worked hard yesterday afternoon to clean both vehicles, inside and out. They got a hot chocolate break in the middle!

Haley is interested in hats now (funny, considering her past aversion). Here she tried on JT’s hat and thought it was sooooo funny.

Yesterday I heard JT say, “Haley, do you want to sweep the floor?” Helpful and sweet, right? Until I saw he meant with her. Too bad she loved it. She giggled all over the house.

Last, this is how JT spent some time this morning while I made breakfast. Must be nice. 🙂
