Boy, you're a STAR

Little guy got some pretty cool shades when we had our palm prints made. He put them on today and kept saying "mommy, cheese!" which meant take a picture. He is SUCH a ham! I wonder where he gets THAT from! :) In this picture he put them on himself upside down.

He loves to sing. Today when we were watching Sesame Street, he was singing the theme song! He also sings while he is playing. It is too cute. I think he was trying his ABC's by himself today, but I can't be totally sure. Most things sound like a mumble except Old McDonald. He sings that almost as plain as you can! He played outside yesterday with his new sidewalk chalk. You could tell he was having a lot of fun. I tried to draw him a couple things but I'm no artist! He ended up trying to draw on top of them all.

We read the same book every night before bed. He even asks for it by name now and is starting to read it along with me. He amazes me every day with the things he learns and absorbs. He talked to MiMi on the phone for a while today about the birds on our bird feeder. He said cardinal so very clear. He also talked to Carmen this afternoon and was actually acting a little shy! I couldn't ask for a better little boy. I'm so blessed!

Hamburgers, golf balls, and wet sheets

We ate last night at Fudruckers. Little guy just loves that place. He ate most of his chicken and fries. As soon as we pull in the driveway, he starts saying "golf balls" over and over. That pretty much means Dennis has to take him in the garage where they have set up a mini-driving range (I'll post pics later) and he starts hitting his golf balls. He's pretty good at it! He is getting a golf bag and 3 clubs for his birthday. Hopefully we have a little Tiger on our hands! So he comes in finally and we do our nightly ritual and he goes to bed.

3AM rolls around and he starts crying. He has somehow wet his sheets through his overnight diaper (which he hasn't done since we started using the overnights). Strange thing is his pj's are not wet at all! Go figure. Anyway, he ended up sleeping between us for the rest of the night because his sheets are soaked. Now this morning my neck hurts really bad because he kicked me in the middle of the night. It is nice though cuddling up with short stuff. It makes my heart sing. He's napping right now and Dennis is golfing with Tim. I really should be folding laundry and putting away these toys, but nah. I think I'll take a nap, too!

I love being a mommy.
