I Have A New Cat...

and his name is Sincere.

Sincere insists that he is a cat for large chunks of the day. Great display of his imagination but can get frustrating fast when you are trying to get the "baby kitty's" paws in his boots. Or figuring out what "baby kitty" likes to eat. LOL!

After visiting the Easter Bunny we went out to eat and the restaurant didn't know but we brought a cat in. The cat insisted on eating his food off the table. Don't even ask why he is bare foot. Or should I say bare pawed. :)

Namaste

Here is some video of Sincere working on his yoga practice. My camera keep running out of space and cutting off so its snipped together but you can still get the picture. Towards the end he starts to move into his "baby kitty" mode. But nowadays he ends everything in "baby kitty" mode.

The Great Race

The reading has been on the back burner as we work on math. Sincere could handle doing more then one subject at a time but I can't. LOL! So we started up again this week. He has been able to read this book since January but to get him to sit down for the amount of time to read it all the way through is nearly impossible at this time in his life. Trust me. I got him to do it today and with out M&M's. I think he just wanted to get it over with so that he could do some glitter work. Which is something he could do all day. And the floor of his room proves it. :)

Reading Math Problems

So it took me about 3 weeks to get this footage. He gets distracted really easy so I would get the first 2 problems then he would go play trains come back and do the last 3. LOL! I am making math sheets with 5 problems on them. He can do 3 different math sheets right now. He loves "My Math." And when we are out and about he likes to run through them verbally.

I love the way he says "equals." I never thought I would think a equal sign would be cute. Enjoy.

"Si, senor he is a chatterbox"

Sincere has been going to Spanish class for toddlers once a week and has really responded well to it. Which is good because I suck at foreign languages. In fact I sit in with the toddlers and am learning things. They just sing songs and do some activities. He can say lots of words and some phrases. But they don't teach him how to read Spanish. So the other day when I saw a deck of Spanish cards I decided to get them. He loves reading and so I figured why not. Well he picked up reading the Spanish words quickly which is saying a lot since he has a 15 minute attention span as you can tell in the video.

The second video which is super long, was just some footage I took of his non stop chatter because I had the camera sitting there. Whenever we are not having a conversation with him he walks around the house talking to himself. And you have to remind yourself that this is him at about 60%. LOL! But seriously from the time he gets up to the time he goes to bed its nonstop talking. So he spends his day either singing, having a conversation with me or talking to himself. Notice his over the top acting abilities too. And the train he hears is really far away but you can hear it some days. Sincere loves it. Enjoy.

American Idol Sincere Style

Sincere is a singer no doubt about it. He sings almost all day everyday. Sometimes I feel like I am living in a musical. He makes up songs for his daily activities and has a long list of traditional favorites he visits anytime the singing mood pops up.

I got him practicing some of his favorites tonight. I show you at the end that he will make up a song for anything. I could of said baby blog and he would of gone to town on it. He is just a singing boy. Now I said he was a singer. I didn't say he was a GOOD singer. Enjoy.

1+1= Sincere and Mommy Doing Math

Sincere resisted math since the first time I tried doing it with him. So I set it aside and we worked on reading which he enjoys. Recently he started to use my fingers to count out stuff and for some reason that helped him become more interested in math. Or maybe he just wanted to do it now and not before. Who knows with this kid but here he is showing some of the addition and subtraction he knows.

Disclaimer- I got him to do this on camera with a bag of gummy worms after failing without gummy worms. I set them on the window sill with a promise for him to have some if he let me record him. Its amazing what the promise of a gummy worm will do. LOL!
