Some kids crave the spotlight more than others

Moe in the affirmative

Moe's standard, affirmative response has evolved over the past six months as follows:

• Yay! (in complete exclamation)
• Yay-yes!
• Yes.
• Yeah ... sure.

He's just so smooth now. Everything is yeah, sure - unless it's no. And when it's no, it's NOOOOO!!!!

Usually he says, " ... put it in the shovel for Zanna and me. And you, Mommy. And you, Robey. And you, Daddy."

Moe's in a big kid bed now. There've been some challenges, but we like to celebrate the wins.

Today after going to his bed at naptime with a sippy cup of milk, he:

• finished the milk.
• got out of bed.
• placed the cup outside his bedroom door.
• shut the door.
• went back to bed and went to sleep.

Now all he needs is a silver tray!

Moe's words of the day

Shhh. Baby sleeping.
