Ways to count

Wystan is learning to count by counting the number of Daleks on the cover of Doctor Who's Series Seven, Part One.

Translations

Our four year old translates what our two year old is saying. W: Cat's hole = castle

A: "I will ask Uncle Carl to dig holes with me."
Carrie: "We're not digging holes in the yard, babe. How about you draw Uncle Carl and Nana birthday cards?"
A: "Not birthday cards. Birthday holes."

From Carrie:

Spa treatment, brother style-Wystan is fitting Raedan's feet into a cup while Asmund washes his face with water he has sucked into his mouth and spit back out.

No, my sweet, still wet from the tub two year old, wearing socks does not equal being dressed.

Asmund is reading to Wystan, "A and H and X and Z, I beat you up on the coconut tree"

Apple Juice

A, hands me new glass: "Dad, you forgot to put apple juice in this."

Yawns

A, this morning: "I don't like yawns. TV will stop my yawns. Turn on the TV, my yawns stop. Turn off the TV, my yawns go."

Hungry

Asmund: "I'm hungry."
Me: "You didn't get enough lunch?"
A: "I didn't get enough ice cream."

Yaeyan

Wystan:
"No! MY Yaeyan!" (My Raedan!)
"Yaeyan yiyaled et me." (Raedan smiled at me.)

Asmund:
"I want my own porch! Uncle Ron will build it for me."

A: "Raedan be my boy cause you have another baby."
C: "Where is my other baby?"
A: "In your tummy!"

Asleep?

Asmund: "I didn't have a nap. That is how I rest my head."
