Loud Weekend!

Even though you can't hear it I am sure you can imagine what is coming out of that mouth...
Welcome to our weekend!

Lately Ian has been screaming to communicate -it is incredibly annoying especially since I know he is very capable of using his words or signing. Even when laughing he has developed this high pitch scream. I would like to say it is cute but WOW the volume that comes out of him is unbelievable. I am not sure what to do about it. When I tell him to use his words he tends to get more frustrated and scream even louder -if you can imagine. Above Ian is helping me get ready for the day -a little too much :)

Ellie came over this weekend, which is always a treat! The two of them played with the toy kitchen and food for at least an hour. This is them eating the food they ordered. They would go to the toy fridge and fill up there cups with pretend water. On the way to the piano Ian would end up tipping or dropping his pretend cup of water and would say "oh no." Then Ellie would sigh, say that it was ok, and walk him back to help him get more "water."
The past few weeks Ian has been sleeping horribly. Not wanted to go to bed and waking up a few times during the night. We realized that all of his eye teeth are coming in at once. Part of our bedtime routine is reading tons of books in bed. Pike usually reads with us as well and helps read a few books "bark, bark." Ian has decided that he likes having Pike sleep with him. Usually the dog has to sleep in his bed but occasionally I'll let Pike stay. He stays on the foot of his bed until I come and get him. Ian absolutely loves it!Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend -I am so glad it is not over -no work on Monday!
