January 2003
What a difference a month makes - He knows every single letter, all of his numbers and all of his colors. You can start in the middle of the alphabet and he will just keep going. He even plays around with a 6 or 9 and flips it upside down and says 6 9 - 9 6 . He has these foam numbers and letters - he can even put them in order. He is so darn Smart - He uses the big potty every day now. :) Hopefully he will be out of diapers by the time he is 2 1/2. :) Are you ready for this - you might want to sit down!!! Ian is now bilingual - He knows all of his colors in Spanish and he can count to ten in Spanish. He also knows a few other words in Spanish, ball, dog, and daddy, ect... He is amazing. When you drive down the street he yells out red means stop - green go go .... :) Mike was in the car with Ian the other day at a stop light and he started spelling out. B.o.r.d.e.r.s. and Mike thought - huh - I guess we are near Borders. :) He was only 21 months in January.. :) Well this month was my birthday and our five year wedding anniversary. It was fun to look back and remember what a fun day that was. :) - *** Also I would love an email update from you with or without pictures.
