One of the advantages of having a gypsy child who loves to spend time with tons of people is he learns different things where ever he goes.
I have been working diligently on the letters A, B, C, and D with Jake and have been putting stars and circles on everything. He is good with the letters and great with stars. Circles just don't hold his interest. At first I thought this might be a bit beyond what a baby is capable of, but it kept us both busy and provided some quality together time. Plus all the e-baby sites swear that you can never do this stuff too early. Anything to promote his brain growth and my sanity.
Jake slept at his aunt's on Sunday night. As soon as we got there he ran to her television cabinet, pulled out a set of colored coasters, and began throwing them as he called the names of the colors. Impressive! She said she has been working with him on colors since about five months and he finally got it. I never really listen to him when he is playing with his crayons since I just shove him in the corner with them and I try to get something done. Yesterday I sat with him and heard him say "purpur" as he dropped the purple one in the box, then "boo", and "grin".
Wonderbaby.
Try it with your smartkid. You'll be shocked what these little ones can do.

He is the smartest baby ever.
A) Spencer hates strangers. He cries whenever one of them looks at him. Unless they have food.
B) He can't say green or purple or blue or red or yellow.
C) I'm pretty sure he doesn't know what is purple or red or yellow or green or blue either.
Is Jake doing road trips yet? Maybe he needs to come spend the night.
Go, Jake! Wonderbaby, indeed!!!
I'm convinced your kid's a genius!
We're not even really talking yet! Banjo just organises the crayons by colour shade and then proceeds to eat them.
I'm in on the road trip. He could have his own travelling show, I'd buy his DVD's over Elmo any day.
Well, my kid can say "oh Shit" as clear as can be! haha
