We often will give the boys a 5, 2 and 1 minute warning before moving on to something else. For example, now that they sit in the bathtub without baby seats they love it even more and will pitch an absolute fit when we have to take them out to dry off. Or when we have to go inside from the yard to eat dinner, or when we have to turn the tv off.
Yesterday Cameron started demonstrating his understanding of this concept. Now he tells us "five more min-its" to be finished with dinner, or "five more min-its" before he wants us to go outside, or to go home, etc.
Evan is into building towers and knocking them down saying "Oh noooooooooo!" with his hands up in the "what happened?" position, like it's a great tragedy. So stinking cute.

Haha!
Since my kids are mute, they just pitch a screaming fit when we come in from playing outside. I mean, an all out on the floor crying with anger that we came in :) I would die with love if one of them said, "Five more minutes" :)
SO cute!
