Potty-training & more

| February 17, 2005 | Comments (0)

Woo hoo…our youngest pooped and peed in her training potty today. She actually enjoyed hangin out there and giving high-fives to everyone too. She’s 20 months old.

Our 4 year-old figured out addition and subtraction herself. It was way cool. She said, “Mama there’s five of us and when Baba goes to China (where he conducts business) then there’s only four of us”. We played with our family of five, added and subtracted and she actually got the concept without having to count every single person.

For example, she says if I go with Baba, then three of you are left at home. If we both come home then all five of us are together again. Aww…what a proud moment.

Our 4 year-old and 3 year-old got regular watches last month, even though our 4 year-old only knows how to tell digital time. I haven’t had a chance to teach her minutes, until today, I made a drawing of a clock with hours in the center, and minutes (all 60 minutes) on the outside. I had her check the digital time and find the numbers on the drawing and showed her watch so she made the connection.

She absolutely loved it. She was also reading the minutes as single digits until today, I tought her the twenties, thirties, etc. She’s catching on very well.

Our 3 year-old had a field day drawing family pictures. She finally makes bodies with all our faces, she’s so proud of herself…so are we of course.

After a wonderful warm spring day yesterday, as fate would have it we got snow today. Aww…I love days warm at home.
