Three Years Old

Another year has past and now you are three years old. You have changed so much in the last year it's just amazing. You talk like nothing else now, and we can carry on conversations with you like anyone else. You are certainly a boy and can be very rough and you love to jump, run and crash into as many things are you can! You love to be tickled and you love reading books at night time. When it's daylight outside, you call it "wake up time" and mommy and penguin are "your bestest girls in the world." There are times when you don't stop giving kisses and hugs and then there are times when you call everyone a "bad boy" because you are not getting your way. You absolutely adore Jacob and look up to him in every sense. You think you are just as big as your Jakey and you that you can do everything he does. You love taking baths with Ben and you are a gentle big brother for the most part. You are starting to be particular about what you were, and sometimes it a struggle to get you to wear "nice clothes." A huge thing that you accomplished is potty training!!! One day you woke up and wanted to wear underpants and from that day one you have used the potty! You love Thomas the Train and Cars and Spiderman and the Hulk (even though I won't let you watch those movies just yet). You love being my "bestest helper in the world" and you always like to pull your chair up to the kitchen counter to see what foods are being prepared and cooked. You have your favorites friends at school (daycare), Zachery, Jake, Kaylie and you have a lot of fun together. And you have had a lot of fun going over their houses and playing. Your getting taller and starting to loose that "baby" look in your face and you have declared that you are a big boy (although sometimes when you don't want to be a big boy, you say "I am just a kid"). You certainly have to have things a certain way (which you get from me, sorry). You love the days when it's just you and Daddy and all you do is play with him all day. Sometimes when I ask you to do things, you say "I am busy now" or "I have lots to do!" I love how you repeat the things we say in your own little way. Yes, another year has gone by and you are getting bigger and smarter and can do so much on your own now. And you will always be "my bestest boy in the whole wide world."
