I haven't posted one of these in quite sometime. When Lincoln first started talking, every word was new and a triumph. At this point, I couldn't begin to imagine that he would know some of the words that he knows and some of the things he comes up with blow my mind. Here are just a few of the things we can check off his list. I wish I could take credit for all this, but Lincoln is just a little sponge. He usually shows us he knows something new before we even think to ask.
Knows all his colors, including the crazy ones like silver, peach, and gray.
Knows all his shapes, including crazy ones like oval, octagon, diamond.
He has known all his letters since the summer, but he also knows the sounds letters make. Every time we drive by the QT gas station Lincoln says "Q says quah and T says tuh".
He's been counting to 20 for quite sometime. The other day he counted to 50. If he gets going too fast, he skips a few, but he definitely gets the concept of counting.
We'll continue to work on opposites, which thing doesn't belong, and answering "who, what why when and where" questions while we are reading. He's not a huge fan of singing, I wish he would sing. He is like his Daddy in this respect, he likes listening. So we'll continue to work on singing.
Looking forward to what 2010 will bring.

Marcy, do you just work with Lincoln on knowing all this? I already count, say the alphabet, colors, etc to Zachary. Always looking for new ideas since we're only just beginning!! :)
That is amazing. No kidding.
