Up & Down

You've been growing so much and so fast!  As of late it seems like after every nap, or sleep you wake up a little taller, a little heavier and a lot funnier.  This morning, after breakfast, you wanted to play with your tunnel. We usually open it up in the house and you crawl all over in and out, in and out through the tunnel. Today, you wanted to stand up and have the tunnel cover you up (they did this in your music class yesterday and you LOVED it apparently.) I can't believe you remembered that and wanted to repeat it at home. It impresses me every moment when I realize how much you really know.  Anyway, today I was putting the tunnel around you and you were watching yourself in the mirror as I would pull it up and bring it down...all the while saying "Up, Down", "Up, Down",  and then you start repeating "Up, Down", Up, Down"  It was amazing to see you make such a connection and be able to repeat those words after me.  You have to remember Ive know you since the very moment you were born (and before while you were growing in my tummy) so its incredible for a parent to witness such development. It blows your mind and  I hope, if you choose to be a father one day, have the opportunity to watch your little ones grow and enjoy it as much as Dad and I are enjoying watching you grow and become a little boy, teen, man...we are so grateful and full of love for you.

Everybody Let's Get Comfy

You're "Comfy Spot" has become a part of your daily routine. After waking from a nap you point to the family room from your crib directing me to take you to the "Comfy Spot". We have it all set up before you awake. We have pillows placed on the floor and a cashmere blanket on top. When placing you in the "Spot" you kick your legs with excitement. You pick out a show to watch, eat a snack, have water and cuddle with Luke and Elephant! Such a nice way to wake up and chill before heading out for our day!

A Few Good Reasons to Love Spring

Who could ask for anything more? Friends, joy and love....

A Regular Comedian

Since you were in the womb I would say "He's really funny..." and now, over a year and half later we still think you're absolutely hilarious! Dad and I will ask you "Can you tell us your best joke?" and with out fail you say "Diggle Dat!"then tilt your head back and laugh! No matter what or whom you tell the joke to it's always a variation of "Diggle Diggle Dat!" It makes you, and anyone listening laugh every time! A funny man you are! But we are still trying to figure out what "Diggle Dat" is.
