Are you?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Ty:  Age 2 (19 months\/22 months)<br \/>\nWeight:  29 pounds<\/p>\n<p><strong>Blue Feet Issue<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I am still noticing that Ty can&#8217;t handle cold.  If he is cold his extremities all turn BLUE BLUE BLUE.  When he was about to have eye surgery in January, the nurses could get a pulse ox to work on him because he was too cold.  They were concerned about it and thought I should have his heart checked.  I know that he only does this when he is cold (and we did have his heart checked for this last year and it was fine).  Wondering if I need to check again though.  Does anyone know if this is a weird preemie thing?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gloworm Issue<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lest we forget Ty&#8217;s fear of his glowbaby&#8230;.the glowbaby strikes again.  When I was setting up Ty&#8217;s crib in his room I decided to mount a few crib toys that I had never put up in the other house (no reason&#8230;just hadn&#8217;t done it).  One of the crib toys has a glowbaby face on it that lights up when you push the button.  It has a little storybook and the characters light up and move on a moving screen.  The glowbaby aspect didn&#8217;t catch my attention.  The next morning I heard this wailing scared cry.  Tanner went to check on him and came out saying &#8220;Mommy!  It&#8217;s the glowbaby again.&#8221;    Aaaghhh!  Still?  Come on now TyJo&#8230;how could that silly little critter still frighten you.  He presses the button still though.  He gets used to it each time after a few days so I left it in there but he will fake a cry if he knows I am watching.  He wants me to believe he is afraid of it:)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Symbol Recognition<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have two fabulously smart kids:).  They both excel in symbol recognition.  Tanner always impressed me with this and now I am noticing the same trait in Ty.  Here are a few examples (keep in mind, Ty is only 19 months corrected age):<\/p>\n<p>When we go to Lowe&#8217;s he recognizes the sign.<br \/>\nWhen we go to Walmart he recognized the parking lot.<br \/>\nWhen he see&#8217;s the word Disney he say&#8217;s Disneyland<br \/>\nIf he see&#8217;s even the outline of a micky mouse head on a paint card he say&#8217;s Disneyland.<br \/>\nWhen we go to Del Taco he say&#8217;s &#8220;burrito&#8221; the minute he see&#8217;s the sign.<br \/>\nWhen we go to &#8220;Uncle Donald&#8217;s&#8221; (that&#8217;s what Tanner calls McDonald&#8217;s), he say&#8217;s &#8220;Burger! Fwies!  Coke!&#8221;<br \/>\nWhen he see&#8217;s the Panda sign he say&#8217;s &#8220;Rice&#8221;!  Both my kids love Panda and I think that is strange.<br \/>\nWhen he see&#8217;s Veggie Tales he say&#8217;s &#8220;Beans!&#8221;  He thinks all Veggie Tales are beans because he has the VT Lord of the Beans episode:)<br \/>\nHe recognizes the letter T, and the shape of a circle, box, apple, and a houf (house:).<br \/>\nWhen American Idol comes on, he screams &#8220;Mick In&#8221;!<br \/>\nWhen our favorite show 24 comes on, he yells &#8220;Ten!&#8221;  LOL!  I think that is very smart that he never can remember to say 24 but he apparently knows 24 is a number so he say&#8217;s 10 instead:)<br \/>\nYesterday Tanner and Ty were in the bath and Ty was holding a little boat and kept calling it a &#8220;puter&#8221;.  Why would he call the boat a computer.  Finally Tanner inspected it and said &#8220;Mommy he is right!  It IS a computer.&#8221;  I checked out the boat and sure enough, a symbol looking exactly like the Windows Explorer icon was on the boat.  THAT IS WEIRD!  Both my 2 year old AND 4 year old recognize the Explorer icon!  That is just a little bit geekish don&#8217;t you think?  LOL.  They definitely get THAT from their dad!  Ha ha!!!!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ty-Ism&#8217;s<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yetters = Letters (he likes letters)<br \/>\nMe-oool= (Meal &#8211; as in get me a meal)<br \/>\nWunch = Breakfast, lunch and dinner<br \/>\nYo&#8217;s = Lowe&#8217;s<br \/>\nMalMart = Walmart<br \/>\nAnd my favorite this week&#8230;.Pay Pen = Play Pen (is that some kind of Freudien slip?)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Calling All Lost Items<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recently I asked Ty to find his shoes.  I watched him walk into his bedroom and peer inside and say &#8220;Are yooooou?  &#8220;Areeeeeeeee yooooooouuuu?&#8221;.  You know that intonation of searching that makes your sentence very long?  Was so cute.<\/p>\n<p>He was hungry for hot dogs the other day and walked over to the kitchen island and peered into the cabinet calling the hot dogs this way.  I didn&#8217;t expect them to answer him but apparently he was hoping:).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pictures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I intend to get better pictures of the boys soon but Ty has looked so beat up lately due to his fall and scratching his ears that I have even hesitated to bring him in public much less take pictures!!!  I have some ideas for sepia pictures for my kitchen so I should be working on it soon:)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ty: Age 2 (19 months\/22 months) Weight: 29 pounds Blue Feet Issue I am still noticing that Ty can&#8217;t handle cold.
