All grown up...

My "little baby boy" is now 2 and a half years old....I can't believe it. Seems like yesterday that he was born and so small. Now he is growing tall, has a mouth full of teeth and such an extensive vocabulary! He is very smart too...takes after daddy with the mechanics and mommy with liking to write and draw. He goes to school with me and Jenna where he has learned all his colors, numbers, shapes and tons of animals (not to mention their sounds too).

What does a 2 and a half year old like to do? Well, he likes two movies: Nemo and Cars....LOVES to play outside and run....likes to play with Jenna and always is taking care of her....he likes to draw and color....and of course, my favorite thing - he likes to help mommy with the dishes and the laundry. :)

Of course there are those "testing" times when he is learning to exert his independence, but for the most part is is an excellent little boy. You definately cannot leave him alone though! For nap time we have to take everything out of his room except for his bed and dresser because he pushes his bed over to climb on top and get the radio to see how it works....and then there's the incident of last Friday where taking out the trash to the back yard cans resulted in mommy being locked outside!

Needless to say, he keeps us on our toes and continues to amaze us with his learning. He is a wonderful big brother and loves to talk to baby Julianna...you're growing up so fast little man!

Here's a video of he and Jenna playing one evening....
