Favorites: this month has been a month for favorites. He's had a favorite color (green) for a while. He has a favorite dress of mine (the long green one). He has favorite shirts (t-shirts with rockets, long sleeves with with robots/controller). He has favorite books (it often changes, but is currently a Lego gold mine one). He has a favorite treat (Starbursts). His favorite restaurant is McDonald's for chicken nuggets.
School: school has gotten better now that we're into the routine. It was never bad, but he is always a bit sadder when I drop him off than Isaac was.
Playing: he still plays Puppy Dog all the time. He does it in a squeaky voice and in third person. He likes doing anything with Isaac, taking bike rides, playing with Duplos/Legos, reading, and running around. He enjoys his music class.
skills: Joshua has mostly mastered getting his own clothes on, but the underwear and shorts often end up backwards. Shoes and sandals are hit and miss, depending on our moods. However, there are times when he is incapable of getting up off the floor. He can put on his car seat straps and can open the fridge. He can also get water from the fridge.
tantrums: we've had some epic tantrums this month. Well, epic for our family. It usually starts with one small thing going wrong and then Joshua can't get himself back under control and it spirals out. He has some ways of dealing with it, such as tasty water or putting himself in timeout, but it doesn't always work. (I think he's put himself in timeout more than I have lately.)
Overall, he's usually a very happy kid and fun to be with.
