When Chris comes home, he plays his podcasts while he cooks; I take Karenna to ballet/tap, apprentice ballet, or modern--depending upon what night it is; and Jude hangs out doing whatever it is Jude does.
Recently, Jude has been ding any of the following:
- dressing in costume,
- playing with his stuffed animals,
- playing DS,
- playing action figures,
- playing lightsabers,
- drawing,
- writing his letters,
- usign fridge magnets to try to make words (which often requires our help--"How do you spell 'Spiderman'?"), or
- any combination of the above.
The other day I found one of Jude's notebooks on the living room floor with some letters on it: "B,A,N,D, and W" in very large print, and on the next line, "I,D,T, and H". I thought nothing much of it until I set the table the next day with Chris and I turned off his podcast--I cannot handle background noise. Here's what he said:
So Jude came in while I was cooking and Jude came up to me. "Daddy," he said, "How do you spell 'Bandwidth'?""Where did you hear that word buddy?" I asked him.
He pointed to my iPod.
(It was a TWiT.TV podcast.)
