Elmo Anyone?

So I am sure most of you mom's have seen Elmo on Sesame Street. Well there is always the part where some kids show Dorothy, the fish, how they do things. "This is how I mail a letter Dorothy."

Lately Kaleb has been showing Ian how he does things and it always reminds me of that part of Elmo's show. A while ago we were in the bathroom brushing Kaleb's teeth. I was holding Ian and he was just staring at Kaleb. I told Kaleb that he should show Ian how to brush his teeth so he said, "This is how I brush my teeth Ian." and he went on to show him.

Just last night Kaleb was standing on a chair "washing" the dishes. Ian was a little fussy but he loves the sound of running water so I brought him over to the sink to listen. He was watching Kaleb so he started narrating to him how he was washing the dishes. It sounded like this, "So I put some soap in here and do this and I take this off and put it here." It was so cute. Ian loved it, he just stared and stared.
