Three and a half!

Someone in our house is celebrating his HALF birthday today! 

At three and a half you are now:

1) Fully potty trained during the day. You love wearing your "Cars" underwear or "Daddy underwear" (boxer briefs).  You still wear a diaper "so you stay dry all night". When you wake up each morning, you independently remove your diaper, throw it away in the bathroom and change into underwear, a t-shirt and shorts. (You would wear this Olympic t-shirt every day if you could!) Half of the time they are on in the correct direction....;

2) Your language is coming along. You tend to speak anywhere between 2-4 word phrases at a time and ask a lot of "What's that/this?" questions. We are working on lengthening your sentences, pronunciation of certain sounds and longer words by clapping them out or using touch cues, and also helping you recall past events so you can relay them to friends and family;

3) You love Jake and the Neverland Pirates and the song "Roll The Map". Your favorite books center around pirates, dragons and "Big Brother" themes;

4) You are becoming more adventurous when it comes to trying new foods---like my chicken cutlets (finally!)---and you still eat everything for Eva (even now when I pack your lunch and dinner);

5) You are now attending Eva's on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Speech is on Monday

and My Gym class (which you participate by yourself) is on Friday.

These next six months are going to fly by with lots of changes headed everyone's way! Can't wait to continue to watch you grow into the best little boy we know!
