Mica Needs Quiet Time

• Mica was a chatter box. He was always talking as soon as he was able to talk. It was talking or sound effects non stop!


• Isaak was always the quiet one up until about a month ago. Now Isaak makes Mica seem quiet. 


• We were in the car and Isaak was jabbering. He was saying, "Knock, knock Mica! KNOCK, KNOCK MICA!" They think that if they say it louder the person will answer. 


• Mica finally speaks up, "Isaak I really need some quiet time. Could you just be quiet for a little while?" 


• In my mind I was thinking "Mica wants it quiet? That's unusual!" 


• Isaak's entered the non stop gibber jabber phase, and Mica moved out of it. It all happened about the same time.

Strong Willed Son

• Isaak is only two and a half. 


• He's now says, "I Isaak Jaxon Apel Mommy!" 


• When he's talking to Daddy, and I answer, Isaak says, "No Mommy I talking to Daddy!" 


• There's been a few times lately where he's sitting on the toilet doing his duty. We go into clean him up, and there is a mound of toilet paper in the toilet. Do I train him to wipe now? Is he still too young and not coordinated for that yet? He is clean, but there's enough toilet paper in the toilet to clog it up!
