Growing up!!!

Hello everyone!  It's been another fun two weeks since our last post and our little guy cannot stop talking!  He's putting more and more words together now and has started expressing things that he can't even see at the time.  For example, we were sitting down to dinner the other night and he glanced around and said, "uh oh, Grayson's chair all gone!" - I think he was remembering cousin Grayson visiting and bringing his booster chair to sit on, I'm not sure, but it was adorable.  It's been so much fun to watch his words begin to catch up with his ideas in play too. Here he is playing Trains in the Tub.   And here is is playing his new favorite, Evan's Pizza Place. He's becoming a director, telling us to get specific toys and put them "right der" ("right there").  He's also becoming more interested in the names of all his buddies at daycare, and will routinely list them off as we drive away from daycare.  So cute!

All Done Eating, Please

Doing what he loves best!  

Reading a story with his buddy Alvin and Alvin's daddy.

This is what we look like before a run in the cold.

And this is what we look like when we can stop and play mid-run.  

*Love*ly Day

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Just a few shots of our little love as he is our favorite Valentine!

Taking his coupe for a cruise this weekend.

Tearing up the "big kid" park and refusing to let mama help him with any of the ladders or slides.

A happy, slightly blurry post-park face.

Inspecting the front loader.  

Dealing with plumbers butt.

Refusing to look at the camera, showing off his valentine's t-shirt, and looking incredibly tall before leaving for daycare!

Ready, Set... Go!

Here's a great VIDEO of Evan pushing around one of his trucks. He was really into it.

He has been learning more and more words and he just keeps surprising us everyday with new ones. He also seems to be putting more words together to say phrases. Like "Daddy, stories please." Impossible to resist.

Here's a few fun photos from early February...

Trains... in the Tent. What could be better?

Painting!
