Look at me grow!

Our little St. Patricks Day Leprechaun
Our little A-man is growing up so fast. I haven't written on the blog for a while since we've been sending pictures instead but I wanted to finally put an update on about all the things that our little guys has started doing.

He not only walks now but he runs, climbs, jumps, and moves all the time. We've had record breaking wonderful warm weather this March and so we spend hours outside and at the park. His favorite thing at the park is the slide and sand box. He has also started to love the climbing wall up to the big slide.

A-man is also learning so fast! He loves learning and can't get enough of it. He can now tell you all his colors, shapes, ALPHABET, and is counting now. He recognizes all the letters, can tell you the letters in order and will do their sign. He loves it so much that he has started singing his ABC's in bed when he is waking up. Cutest thing ever. We love spending time teaching him and watching him learn.

He loves playing with friends and is truly the sweetest boy. He does really well with sharing - although this week he learned the word MINE and so that may be changing soon. He gets along well with other kids and is so friendly.

He also has increased his love of music and now dancing. He loves to dance and has some pretty hilarious moves. He also loves to sing into his microphone and play the piano. We taught him how to sing Do-Re-Mi the other day and he went around singing it all day. Too cute!

Sunset boat ride in Texas
We went on a little vacation and he had the chance to enjoy the beach. He didn't like the water a lot but he LOVED the sand! He would literally roll around in the sand and thought it was the best thing ever. He also had the chance to hold a star fish, pet a large turtle, touch a snake, feed rabbits, and touch all kinds of sea creatures - as well as help dad chase and catch sand crabs on the beach.

He has some definite favorites now and doesn't mind letting everyone know about it. A-man's favorite color is Yellow. I heard him talking in sleep the other night - and all he was saying was "yellow, yellow". He also saw a yellow shirt at the store the other day and when I handed it to him he cuddled it and said "Ahh yellow" and wouldn't let the shirt go. He will also point out if anyone or anything is yellow.

He loves all things BOY! Dirt, sticks, rocks, bugs, trucks, balls, trains, cars, firetrucks, and construction trucks. He will drive his trucks, cars, trains, etc...around all day and makes awesome sound effects. He also still loves animals and we make sure to visit the zoo whenever we can.

SAND!

A-man is such a happy boy! He loves to talk and his speech is getting better and better everyday. We love each and every day we spend with him. He keeps us on our toys but we wouldn't have it any other way.
