Boys will be boys...

...and I hope this one never changes!

This boy truely brings so much joy to my life!

These are some of the things that keep me grinning from ear to ear:

Once he decided he was a big boy, he potty trained so quickly, seriously in a week.

I can count on my hands the total number of accidents we had and never any #2! :)

He is a good eater. He loves to eat anything with noodles, grapes, tomatoes and "piece of bread/jam"

Doesn't like peanut butter or chocolate but give him skittles and he'll gobble them all up.

He has outgrown his intolerance to milk, phew, and loves milk, cheese and yogurt...no more Soy.

He is a smarty pants. He speaks so well. He can totally say his ABC's and recognize them too.

He can count to 20+ a few others he adds in and is really good at recognizing them as well.

I love to watch him play. He categorizes his toys, especially his little animals that he loves to haul around everywhere. "These are the giddy-uping animals, these are the swimming animals..."

He still chats about going to San Diego last summer and all the fun experiences we had.

His favorite show to watch is Disney's Oceans, a documentary of the Ocean.

I could totally see him being a vet or animal trainer or at least diving like his Papa, he loves it!

He really enjoys shooting hoops and is pretty accurate!

Loves playing catch, though his is not so great at that yet, but we like to practice.

He loves to run. Loves to play. Loves to ride his bike. Loves to dig.

He enjoys being daddy's helper and going with him to take the garbage or feed the dogs.

Recently he dug in and helped at the city sandbagging event with his daddy.

He likes to color and is getting a little bit more concerned with staying in the lines.

Like his sister though, he would much rather start from a blank paper than a coloring book.

Mostly...I love love how cuddly and lovey he is.

He is always wanting to give hugs and kisses to all of us, especially Kaeda.

He is a very good brother and son. Observant of our needs and eager to help.

He wants to make people happy and has a gigantic heart.

He is brave, yet tenderhearted.

I LOVE BEING RIDGE'S MOM!
