Finally Some Time

So, I'm guilty!! I have been so busy that I haven't had the chance to write in a few days. I have been so consumed with making the perfect Disney vacation that it has kept me up to 1am most nights. It's just so addicting, but that's my OCD taking over mostly having to have everything absolutely perfect. John and I were both off today and it is Wednesday, which means Kids Eat Free at Wings N More. We only go when we are off, otherwise we cannot get there before 630 therefore giving you a 45minute wait time.
Nicholas loves his veggies! He had fried catfish today, which we will not be doing again there, we will be going back to the Grilled chicken strips. Everytime we started to put more grilled veggies on his plate he started giggling! In the corners of the wall they have tvs, which I never saw him watching but evidently it caught his eye a couple of times. As he was stuffing his face he stopped to say ball. I looked up and basketball was on ESPN. Later, he said car, I looked up and got a half a second glimpse of a car commercial.
Some new things that Nicholas is doing: At school they are working on pointing and naming body parts. He knows head, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, hair, tongue, hands, belly button, tee tee, feet, toes. They are also working on body coordination. Today I learned that when I say jump he jumps. I also learned today that he can say Wal-Mart. We got a Wal-Mart ad in the mail today and I said it one time and as he was looking at the ad he said "WaMa" After asking him to repeat it, I figured that he was saying Wal-Mart. He has also learned about time out. I was quite the skeptic but I think out of the 2 times that I have used it it does really work.
Yesterday, Nicholas decided to play in Lady's water bowl. After telling him no and don't touch 3 times I made him sit down quickly at the edge of the kitchen. I told him that we do not play in Lady's water bowl as I was cleaning up the entire bowl of water that he dumped over. After about 1 minute I kneeled down beside him and asked him if he would stop playing with Lady's water and he nodded yes and then gave me a hug and of course, that was the end of time out. I didn't have to tell him again last night to get out of her water. Today of course, was a different story.
