Analytical Andrew

Andrew has really been surprising us over and over in the past few months. He is becoming more and more analytical, and is getting better with all of his skills. Not only is he learning to sort shapes and colors, but he is also progressing in learning his numbers (counting 1 through 20, and now backwards, too), his alphabet (can recognize uppercase and lower case letters), and he's even learning how to spell his name!

Here are some things he's been doing recently:


Back in May, he put finally learned to put all his blocks in order, and build something that's even bigger than him!


Then we noticed that he's beginning to match colors.


He's always been fascinated with patterns, and here he puts things in a straight line.


Somewhere along the way, he's learned that the vowels are different than the consonents. He picked these letters all by himself, and put them in order! What's even more surprising? He next went and got "Y" to put at the end!
