Project 365: Day 285 – Still a Baby

image

Navy is becoming a big boy in so.many ways. He walks and talks. He picks up his toys. He writes or colors. He can do so many things for himself.

Yet, he shows me in sweet, little ways that he is still a baby.

He still sits in my lap to put his socks on. He tosses in his crib, that he hasn’t learned to climb out of (yet). He still wants held and cuddled when he doesn’t feel good.

It’s bittersweet. I love seeing him learn new things and be able to do more for himself. At the same time,  I hate it because my boy is growing up.

Why does it go so fast?!

Tonight, we had some role reversal. Lily read me a bedtime story!

“In the Woods” by Akimi Gibson.

This is the book she is reading in her reading group at school. She read it to Navy and me during his bath time. Then, she read it again before she went to bed.

Proud Mommy moment!

“The Lorax” by Dr. Seuss

One of Lily’s favorite movies at the moment is The Lorax. We have rented it from Redbox twice. Now, it is on a Christmas wishlist.

She needed a book to fill in the Dr. Seuss square on her Building Bridges bingo sheet and a pizza slice on her Book It! page.

Lily is out of book report forms, so to make it more fun, I found a simple printable. She was able to color the Lorax after she finished her report.

Rather than type her report, the actual thing is just too cute!

Pizza Hut Book It!: 7/8*
Building Bridges: 6/25

*I had the kindergarten goal wrong. It’s only 8 books, not 10. The same page is used for other grades, too.
