(His awesome outfit he came up with one morning.  Cowboy hat, pajama shirt, Daddy's belt, underwear, and Daddy's socks).

- You are growing like a weed!  Sometimes I just stare at you and wonder when it was, exactly, that you got so big.  I told you the other day that you need to stop growing, that you can't get any bigger because I always want you to be little.  You thought that was pretty funny.  Later on I overheard you talking about it out loud during your nap.

- You love your buzz lightyear toys.  You run around saying, "to infinity, and beyond!"...and always have to get your wings on.

- You love to play the demo songs on the piano.  You run around the house with your superhero cape on to one of them.

- You hide about every night when Daddy gets home.  Most of the time you hide in the same spot.  And you cannot keep from laughing or yelling out to Daddy from where you are hiding. :)

- Our biggest challenges these days are getting you to eat all of your food, and getting you to listen right away.  You are easily distracted and sometimes can't even make it up the stairs before forgetting what you were sent to do. :)

- You are so social!  You ask me about every day where we are going or who is coming over.

- You have some really good buddies from church that you love to play with.  We are so thankful for your guy buddies.

- For some reason you started taking naps on the floor in your room instead of on your bed.  You ask to do this everyday!

- You love to do crafts and projects.

- You talk all.the.time.  Oh, do you ever love to talk. :)

- I told you the other day that you were my special treasure....and you looked at me and said "Mommy, you're my treasure special, too!".

- You love to help me in the kitchen and are always asking if you can help with whatever I'm doing.

- You love to listen to your radio.

- You love to go to the park down our street, we go several times a week!

- You love your little sister so very much.  You are always kissing her and giving her loves.  Your voice gets pretty high when you talk to her.  It's pretty cute. :)

- You told me the other day that when you get bigger you're going to "get my own gum, and my own phone".

- You love watching cartoons (maybe a little too much!).  Your favorites are Team Umizoomi, Mike the Knight, and Dora.

- We read Curious George about every night.

- Your mommy and daddy love you to pieces and can't imagine life without you.
