Weekly Roundup 09/11/05-09/17/05

This week was a pretty busy week. As much as I say I am going to start to slow down, I can never seem to do it! Kaiden’s full-time Montessori is in full swing, and she comes home with something new to discuss every night. One night she came home and informed me that if “they” ever decide to install railroad tracks behind our house, it is not safe for us to cross those, or a train could come along and hit us! Good to know!

It seems like Ashton has started speaking so much clearer this week. We can now say eye, nose, mouth, teeth, hair, spongebob. He has also developed the horrible habit of biting this week. He was sent home twice this week for biting at school - I am VERY unhappy about this and have no clue how to stop it, because he does not do it at home. Everything I have read says that you have to stop it when it is happening, and if I am not with him at school and he does not do it at home…how do I stop it?

We went to the Blues at the Beach festival Saturday night and they had some planes from the air show do a mini show over the beach and three parachute teams jumped and landed on the beach - KAIDEN loved them! The Blue Angels were also hanging out at the Blues Fest and Kaiden got her picture taken with some of them. We went to the Air Show on Sunday. Kaiden cracked us up at the Air Show - they did a bombing demonstration and were dropping fake bombs that were so loud and created huge black clouds of smoke. Kaiden got really upset and kept asking “Why are they destroying our city?” - HILARIOUS!

Posted by some girl on 2005-09-19 23:05:14 i'd talk to the teacher at school about the biting thing, he can't be the only kid that's ever done this at school.
Posted by better safe than sorry on 2005-09-19 21:12:47 Your husbands look like brothers!! As far as the biting, it usually is a communication issue. At that age they have difficulty using thier words to express themselves esp. in a heated you-took-my-toy situation. It is much easier to chomp. The key is to keep talking to him about it and teach him the words to use to resolve the problem in the future. It's not easy or fun hurtle for you, the parent, but after a while it will sink in. I worked in a preschool/daycare for 2 years and this was a constant issue in the 18 month & 2 year old class.
Posted by MommaK on 2005-09-19 17:27:18 Message to your husband: Get serious about Mr. Smith and Weston. Thats a really cute young lady and in the coming years you might need their help! If you need the calvary, I'm here!
Posted by Michel on 2005-09-19 16:30:51 the picture of our husbands. I have two that I was going to post because in each one they have the same expression. Not in each picture, but in each of the pics the two of them have the same look. In this pic you posted, they both have the same exact dumb-ass expression. Losers!
Posted by dena on 2005-09-19 15:35:33 If he's not doing it at home, press the issue on the teachers and let them know it's not ok to just dismiss him and send him home. Sophie was a little bit of a biter and likewise she only did it at school and we backed them into accepting some of the responsbility for curbing it. As usual, great pictures :-) Looks like the kids had great fun!
