Every day with Antonio is a fun new adventure right now. Today at toddler class, he had his first painting project. He seemed to enjoy it so much that it seemed like time to show him how his new easel was also for painting. He did a bit of fingerpainting, a bit of brush painting and a whole lot of artistic expression. We have a wonderful artist in residence program with the first of many pieces to come on display. The gallery is happy to open to interested connoisseurs.
Havana and Antonio are also both loving the deck. They would be happy playing out there for hours. Notice the great toy box, courtesy of City of OH!
But the thing that amazes us every day is Antonio's brain. He is learning more and more every day and today in the bath he STUNNED US.
What was stunning was, we weren't talking about this book....and it was NOT in the bathroom. He is saying it all from his little memory! And he got it all right!!! He did it twice so the video is a combo of the two times. AMAZING to us parents.
For anyone that doesn't remember this great story, here is the book below - we took pictures of it after he went to bed to share.
I can't wait to see all the other tricks he has up his sleeve!

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!! I'm in shock! I've already listened to the clip 3 times and will definitely be listening more. I'm so glad you were able to catch it on video. I, particularly, love the emotion that he has learned to express with each one. Whisper and SHOUT and hot and cooooold are my favorites. So awesome.
p.s. The painting is brilliant. I'm so happy he's old enough now to do that without eating it or flinging it across the room. :)
Lol! Love Sandra Boynton (narrated by Antonio Rodgers)!
