MiMout!

A.K.A. Time Out! Yes, Time out has somehow become a fun place to be. In fact, Ethan has begun doing things to get "time out." "MiMout?" he asks after very deliberately spilling his milk followed by throwing his food all over the table. When he gets to "time out," he stands there, knocks on the wall and says, "Knock! Mama, I You," over and over and over again. UGH!!!!! I have to say, it is difficult not to crack a smile though.... because he is so cute!

Milestones:
*Ethan can count to THREE. "One, two, TREE!!!" This is usually right before he flings himself off of something. It's usually a signal for mama to RUN screaming "NOOOO!."
*He holds up his pointer finger and says "one!"
*He's also getting very good at sharing. Some days it is harder than others, but he enjoys giving other kids toys whether they want them or not.
*Ethan also says "Tay Tou" almost every time he's given something. We're still working on Please, but when asked to say the "magic word," we will get a "Peeez?"
*He knows that when we go into the library we have to "SHHHhhhh!" Although, it is so much more fun to do that after screaming!
*He is starting to be able to identify shapes when asked. "Can you point to the circle?" (They have to be clear though.)

Colors seem to be a VERY difficult concept to understand. Everything is either bue (blue) or "allow!!!" (Yellow)
