Monthly Update: 38 Months

35 Months Old





• You love ketchup (k-up)!! You constantly want more when you are eating French fries, chicken fingers or fish sticks.
  


• You love to hold mommy’s hand when you go to sleep at night. We try to get you in your bed around 8:00pm most nights and once you crawl into bed, you want mommy to sit beside you and to hold your hand until you fall asleep. It’s so precious to me and I love those moments with you. Some nights you fall asleep really fast; however there have been nights where I have held your hand for about an hour. J


• You are OBSESSED with Monster Trucks and Nascar Racing!! You usually want to watch these on TV over any of your favorite cartoons. Our favorite races are the freestyle competitions and most of the time you say “Awe Man” or “It Cash (It crashed)” when they crash or flip over. You love the Batman & Spider Man Car the best. You also like to pretend to be a Monster Truck driver when you drive your 4 wheeler around the house. Most of the time we find you running over things, standing on your 4-wheeler while driving it and riding on the back 2 tires. You have no fear child!!


• You had your first scare this month at school! On Feb. 21st (Monday) you fell at school on the playground and hit your head. They thought you had a concussion, so we headed to see your doctor to make sure everything was okay. Turned out you were fine and you were released by the doctor to head back to school. On Feb. 25th (that Friday) you hit your head again during recess in the gym and busted your forehead. After seeing the doctor, we were told that you needed stitches and we headed to an ENT so that they could stitch you up. You ended up getting about 4 deep stitches and 4 stitches on top of that. You were such a trooper!!! However, Nana and Mommy were a complete mess!


• You are talking ALL the time when you are at home with mommy and daddy. We are starting to understand a few of the words and you get so excited when we can understand what you are saying.


• New Words you are saying: “Pig, Batman, Baa (for Sheep), Egg, Cash (Crash), See ya, Elephant, Deep, Wide, Eye, Bear, Apple, Spider Man, Papa (PawPaw), Cacker (Cracker), Pizza, Big,”


• You can say all your ABC’s now and you love to spell things that you see. For example, the other day when we were at the doctor’s office they had a sign that said Alabama. You started telling us every letter.. ALABAMA.


• You can also count to 10 and love to do this when we are going up the stairs to see Mrs. Angie at speech.


• Favorite Movies this month: Bolt!!!


• Favorite Songs this month: Deep & Wide, Wheels on the Bus,


• Favorite Foods: Pizza, Frosted Flakes, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Cheese It’s, Ritz Crackers, Soda Crackers, Applesauce, Oranges, Bananas, Fish Sticks, French Fries, Chicken Fingers, Doritos, Tortilla Chips


• You love to visit the fish at school in the mornings. You get so excited when we get upstairs and you run straight to the room with the fish tank. I’m so thankful for this fish tank because it usually makes your morning start off much better.


• You love when mommy picks you up from school!! You usually tell everyone “Bye” and as soon as we get into the car you ask for your juice. I’ve forgotten a few times to have you something and let’s just say that you were not a very happy little boy.


• You are wearing size 3T clothing and you wear a size 8 shoe! Your little feet are so wide.


• You still weigh about 38 lbs (You’ve been this weight for the past year; however, you’re just getting taller!!)

Colton,

You are starting to develop into you precious personality so much more now and we can’t get enough of it. When you are at home with just mommy and daddy you are the funniest little boy ever!! You are constantly laughing and running wide open around the house. You love to ride your 4-wheeler, and wrestle with your daddy and you are still mommy’s little buddy. You are a typical 2 ½ year old boy that loves cars, trucks, dinosaurs and Super Heros! Throughout the past month, you have started talking more and more and we are starting to understand bits and pieces of what you are saying. We love that our house is no longer quiet and that you are trying to express your feelings more these days. We are so proud of all of your accomplishments this month!! You are such a sweet little boy and we couldn’t ask for a better son.
