Two-Sticks

For dinner tonight we had a rare treat - Chinese takeout. Nathaniel tried chopsticks, or what he dubbed "two-sticks", for the first time. He quickly discovered the best way to use them was to hold them in one hand while picking up food with the other!

Nathaniel and the Chopsticks saying "cheese":

Hey, "two-sticks" are good for drumming on the table!

A Colorful World

Nathaniel has recently learned his colors! A couple of months ago I got a little frustrated with everything being the color blue, so I gave up trying to teach him for awhile. But while on paternity leave, Jeff expanded his color vocabulary a lot. Here are the colors of the rainbow, Nathaniel-style:

"Wed" = Red
"Wehwoe" = Yellow
"Gween" = Green
"Boo" = Blue
"Puhpull" = Purple
"Bown" = Brown
"Back" = Black
"White" = White
"Siwwer" = Silver

and my personal favorite:

"Oh-Nay" = Orange

It's a colorful world in the York household!
