Yikes. From March 24.

OK my sweet boy, it has been way too long since I have posted in your blog. So much life has been happening and we have been so busy lately. I've been spending a lot of time with you and your sister and I prefer to do that than sit in front of a computer and write about it. But I want you to know some fabulous things about yourself now that you are 2 1/2.

You are learning a lot in preschool, and you are starting to sound more and more like a grown-up kid when you talk. And example of this is the other day, we were driving and you pointed up to the sky and exclaimed, "I see the moon!" It was so sweet and beautiful and fantastic, which is pretty much what I think about everything that you do. You have started throwing a few more tantrums lately, which I giggle at most of the time. At this point in our life, your tantrums don't really frustrate me...yet. I know that they are just part of your growth and part of you finding out who you are.

One of the things you've been doing a lot lately is singing, and mommy just loves it. You use the iPad very well to find little songs that you like on YouTube. Your favorite lately is the finger family song. And you also love 30 Seconds to Mars "Closer to the Edge" video. You found that by accident one day on Mommy's phone, and since Mommy laughed at you and made a big reaction, you kept doing it and then realized that you actually like the song. Now you sing along. 

You are starting to prefer Daddy a little more over Mommy. You guys do silly things together like chase each other and tickle each other. And your favorite nighttime book right now is I Am a Droid, which is obviously a Star Wars book. And that he reads it much better than mommy does, so you prefer a Daddy to put you to bed these days. 

You are still very sweet to your sister, and only every once in a while do you get jealous when Daddy or I are holding her. 

You love the park by our house, and you ask to go almost every day. The weather has been so unpredictable that we have only been able to go a few times, but at least there's a playground at preschool. Speaking of preschool, I have saved a couple of your projects and posted them below, because I love them. Also speaking of preschool, you keep getting sick. I sure hope that this means that you will be healthier later on. But even when you were sick, you are a happy, sweet boy. 
You're still not fully committed to the big boy bed. That's going to have to change soon, though, because Sister is almost too big for her little mini crib. The last time you slept in it, you ended up throwing up--weird stomach bug sweeping the city--so I wonder if that has something to do with why you won't stay put....


Bottom line of all this is, you make my life better.

Love you, Baby!
