things to say and sleep training

last week we had several words of the day. for two or three days in a row it was "car, vrooom!" because emma is learning what things say.
(and sunday night, when i asked her what daddy says, her answer was "rowf" same for george. but emmas says "mommy" which we all already knew after listening to the chorus of "mommmmyyyyy"s all the way home from mccall) she is learning new words every day (even jason noticed it has sped up from one or two a week, or one or two a day) just this weekend she learned airplane, people, and swing while we were in mccall.

anyway, it seems "yellow" is the word of the day today. shes starting to learn the words but we are struggling with their association. shes still little though, im sure she will get it.

and geroge is learning to sleep before 1030pm. ive been putting him down around 8 or 830 most nights and he is getting a lot better at falling asleep on his own, and quickly. the down point for his mommy is that he is hungry earlier in the morning. instead of breakfast at 7, it tends to be closer to 430 to 6. but, hes little too, and doing well.

he is ten and a half weeks old now, and at his dr appointment on the 9th he was 11 pounds 11 ounces and 23 inches long. he is growing fast! he went from the <5th percentile on almost everything to the 40-45th percentile on everything. and right now, he is snoozing through tummy time.
