Boys will be boys

Hmm...where do I start? Ely is growning up so much. He is almost 3. WOW! I can't belive how smart he is already and how much he understands and how well he talks. Tonight I had a conversation with Ely. I asked him what he wanted for his birthday in November. Here is the conversation...

Me: What do you want for your birthday in November?

Ely: Cake!!

Me: Yes Ely we will have cake but what do you want for a present? Do you want a new 'Cars' bedset?

Ely: No mom, I already have a cars bedset.

Me: Ok, how about a new cars blanket?

Ely: NO MOM! I have one on my bed see...(he showed me his conforter from his bed) LOL!

Me: I said, no Ely how about a really big fuzzy cars that is as big as your room?
(He smiles big and shook his head.)

Ely: Ok mom, let's make it easy, anything cars I want.

LOL! I thought it was cute. I am so proud of my boys. I am so afraid that I am not teaching my boys enough while I am at home. At least I have it so that Ely will sit down with me to read a book and not me running around like a headless chicken..HE! HE! HE! If anybody has any suggestions for me on how to work the boys to help them with colors and shapes and counting would be great. I know that other 3 year olds can count to 10 and Ely can only pretty much get to like 5 sometimes. So I just thought I would share our little conversation with all of you.

Well cool Barb, Hey here is another idea for his birthday...he wants a Diego movie to. That is what he is always wanting to watch "Diego" when he gets home from your house. So if I can find a Diego movie that would be great..
