Thanks to circle time at school (and reinforced by Dora the Explorer), Zeeke's love of Spanish is back. He now prefers to do his counting (at least from 1-10) in Spanish and has pretty much learned most of the colors. He's very interested in the fact that there are different words for the same things.
On Veteran's Day, we went to New Jersey to go apple picking with Steve's mom. Zeeke had a blast filling his little basket, eating as he picked, and hanging out with the sculptures in the play area.
Saturday, Steve & Zeeke did some watercolor painting in the morning, then headed over to music class. After nap, they baked a pumpkin cake. When Karen got home from work, she and Zeeke had a fun trip out to the drug store that involved dancing, colorful lights and glitter pens.
Sunday, Steve & Zeeke did some Thanksgiving-themed drawings in the morning, then Karen & Zeeke went to Moira's birthday party where he had a great time making cookies.
Conversations with Zeeke:
"All right, it's pyjama time. Take off your clothes."
"No, Daddy, you take off your clothes."
"Don't be silly. Adults never take off their clothes."
"Yes, they do!"
"When did you see adults take off their clothes?"
"In a movie."
After talking for a while about how silk worms make silk:
"Daddy, do butterflies make butter?"
