Three... How Can It Be?


How in the world do we have a 3 year-old?!? It seems like just yesterday we were in the hospital with the little guy. Three years later he's not so little. He's so full of personality that he is constantly cracking us up. Between his fascination with Mario, the Peanuts gang, superheroes, Disney movies, Legos and Waldo, he's never at a loss for words. Chances are if he's talking to you, it's about one of those things. He's got such a tender heart and has recently developed a fascination of laughing with/at Eleanor. It's adorable. He talks constantly, sings all the time, is always on the move, but at the same time can be very focused (with puzzles, iPad games, or a movie/show). He's a great helper, a somewhat picky eater (we're working on that), a slightly better sleeper, but overall an amazing kid. We love him and are so happy that he's in our family. Happy Birthday, E-man.

Here's a little chat he and I had the other day:


And for kicks, let's take a little jog down memory lane...
