1-10
Paulchen finally did it. He finally counted all the way to 10 today. Granted I had to help him a little, but he did really well. One of the pages in one of his LeapPad books had the numbers 1-11. When he touched them, the number was said. So I pointed to them and did a few drills. Once I thought he had them down, I asked Paulchen to find the numbers. He got almost every single one correct. Finally I went through and counted with him. For some reason he doesn't like to say the number 7. With the other numbers he'd repeat them if he forgot them. But he refused to say 7 and would skip right to 8. He still would point to 7 when I asked him too though. Oh well, we'll work on that. I was so amazed and proud.

I have to admit though, my favorite word is "ear". He says it like he has a New York City accent. It comes out more like "ea-ah" and he says it so high-pitched. It's so cute.

We had sword practice today and went over to Max's house. He has a little daughter who's 19 months. It was cute to hear Paulchen and Breanna talking with each other. I wonder if they understood each other at all. Of course, Paulchen proceeded at one point to fall flat on his face and give himself a goose egg on his forehead. Paul said he had dirt in his mouth and couldn't understand it at first. Just another face-plant. Oh well, that's kids.
