These pictures make me laugh.
Baby CP has a new favorite cartoon - Busytown Mysteries. He likes to sing along with the theme song. He definitely has preferences for different shows at different times - he might request Dora or Busytown Mysteries one day, but on another he'll say no Dora.
I think these are fine motor skill training exercises. He looks very focused.
Baby CP was sick this week. His teachers said that on this particular day he was so unhappy except when they were making these lanterns. He had not been this unhappy since his first week at daycare and he insisted on being held all day and asked for mommy all day. Poor guy. His runny nose seemed to have dried up yesterday though, which is pretty good. Usually it takes about 10 days to run its course.
