2 1/2 Years Old!

Yes, David is 2 1/2! The years are going by so quickly. Here are a few fun pictures of him playing in the cabinet last week. He has decided to make himself a little "house" in there. He loves making "houses." Even the last week he is talking more and more but that really took off in November. He says his name and will say the letters if you write them out on paper for him "D A V I D." Some of his latest words are "Kangaroo" and "Orange." He names many colour correctly... blue, green, red, pink, black, purple, yellow, orange and sometimes grey and brown. He has really enjoyed this Christmas "oh... PRESENTS!" and all the "treats" around. Chocolate is his favorite thing to eat whether it's chocolate cake, hot chocolate or the cheep chocolates from his advent calendar. He knows what he wants and has lately had us on the hunt for various toys he is missing and decides he needs. He will say "truck... where are you?" or "___ where are you?" And he has taken to sleeping with trucks and cars which can't be very comfortable but he insists... he even sometimes will cuddle with a book. This visit to the Island he said "Aunty" for the first time and calls all family by name whether it's "Oma, Opa, Nana, Papa, Gaddy (Grammy), Mommy, Daddy, Aunty, Jar (Jared), Gampa or Papa (Rob), Papa Brent or Gampa Brent, Gramma" etc... so cute!

What else can I say about our first born? He continues to be a delight as we continue to marvel at the new things he learns and comes up with everyday. Part of us will always wish he'd stay little but we look forward to watching him as he continues to grow. Love you David! Happy 1/2 Birthday!
