U.S. Placemat

I call Doug the "Human GPS" because he always knows where he is going when we travel. He has such a good sense of direction, which is great because my sense of direction is always a little off. Doug has a huge fascination of geography. He knows where every state and country are, what the capital of every state is...it's pretty amazing. Plus he hardly has to think about it when I ask him where something is...he just knows.

Well, a few months ago I got Noah this handy dandy little placemat with the map of the U.S. on it. Doug, of course, was very happy with this purchase and immediately started to show Noah what it was by pointing to where we live and the names of all of the states...and Noah is totally taken in by it all. He is SO fascinated and just stares at it when he eats, especially when he is eating breakfast. I think that Doug is determined to teach him the names of all of the states before he starts Kindergarten...we'll see ;).

Where do we live?
Where does Aunt Suzi live? {Yep...that's right :)}.
