A pretty awesome kid!

Well I figured it was time for an update on what Christopher has been up to and in into lately.  He is ALL BOY that is for sure! 
  • He loves LOVES any and all modes of transportation be it motorcycles, trains, helicopters, rescue vehicles and school bus (his personal favorite).  
  • He loves to read his books and we will often find an array of them in his bed in the morning or after nap.  He doesn't realize we can hear him stomp over to his bookshelf to get a little reading material.  
  • His drawing and coloring obsession has slowed somewhat, but every now and then he will create a masterpiece.  It is usually on the kids menu when we go out to eat.  

  • Woobie and Angie are still a big deal to him, although we have begun to leave them in his room until it is time to go to bed.  
  • He loves Super Why, Sid the Science Kid, Chuggington, and Special Agent OSO.  He flip flops back and forth with Mickey Mouse and Sesame Street. But I do have to say his all time favorite show..... wait for it..... Wheel of Fortune?  Yep you read right!  We have a nightly ritual of finishing up dinner, and cleaning up dishes and then sitting down and watching WOF!  He will sit throught the entire show and knows that when they hit bankrupt or lose a turn that it is a bad thing, and he usually say "ohhhh nooooo"  and he jumps up and down screaming if they win the prize puzzle at the end.  He is just too funny!
  • For all of you who know him, he has just recently started talking a lot.  But he is really starting to pick up funny words and phrases.  He loves to ask if we are sleepy when we yawn, he asks "you ok?" if we cough or bump into something.  Every bug is a bumble bee, and he is quick to let us know when something is "not nice".
  • Dancing has become top priority in this house.  If there is music playing with a somewhat "grooveable" beat, you better believe this boy will be busting a move in the kitchen. And if you are lucky, he will ask you to dance too!
  • And this boy loves to eat!  Sure he goes through his picky stages as any kid would, but when he likes something....
He likes it!!!

At his last visit he was 36 lbs. and 37 inches tall!  He is a good sleeper, a good eater, I would say all in all... A pretty awesome kid!
