Three and a Half




C- Baby...
You are officially 3 1/2 years old!  You tell everyone that you meet that you're three and a half (and you also tell them that Lukey is 1 and a half) so I thought I would take a few minutes to document some things about you now that you're half way between 3 and 4!

  • You weight about 35 pounds.
  • You wear size 3T/4T clothing and size 10.5 shoe.
  • You're a good sleeper.  You still take a 2-3 hour nap each day.  You usually go to bed around 8/8:30 and wake up between 7 and 7:30.  
  • You're a great eater!  You (THANKFULLY) give us no trouble at all with regard to eating and eat every meal nearly every time without any complaints (I'm in awe of this because you're sweet baby brother is your total opposite in this arena).  Your favorite foods include fruit (you always eat your fruit first and the only fruit I have found that you don't like so much are apples), pasta, pizza, yogurt, PB&J, chips, chicken, and fish.  You will eat anything for an after dinner treat!  Your favorite restaurants are Chick-fil-a and Chipotle.  
  • You still love to read!  You like all books, but you are more drawn toward nonfiction.  Currently you most enjoy reading about trucks, animals, and planets.  
  • Your favorite TV shows are PAW Patrol, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, and Peppa Pig.  
  • Over the past few months you've gotten really into super heroes.  I think Batman is your main guy, but you like all of them.  
  • Your favorite toys are your Plasma car (you ride that thing like a champ!), toy trucks, little animals that you can "take care of", and matchbox cars.
  • Your favorite sport is basketball.  You have a hoop in your play area that you like to play with.
  • You have developed a very strong opinion about what you wear.  Your little style has taken a turn - gone are the polos and khaki shorts you used to wear religiously.  Your preferred get-up is all athletic wear.  Your favorite shirts have either a super hero or a sport on them.  One of our biggest battles has become the clothes you wear.  
  • You continue to be very social and will easily talk to anyone and everyone around you.  You like to be with your friends and make them laugh.  It upsets you when your friends aren't being kind to you.  
  • You wake up very smiley and happy each morning - ready to tackle the day.  For the most part, you are very obedient, helpful, loving, and cooperative.  However, there are times that you are easily frustrated and do not listen so well to our requests or demands to stop doing something you shouldn't be doing.  When you do get upset, you calm down very easily.  When you're upset you always say (through your screams and tears)..."Mommy I need a hug!".  
  • Outside, you are quite active.  You like for Daddy to set up his orange cones and do "drills" with you (high knees, "bottom" kicks, etc.), ride your bike/Jeep/Plasma car, take walks, play in the water table.  You are very cautious when you're around the road and you don't love to get your clothes dirty.  
  • You still sleep with Snuggle Bear and usually one other small little toy.  You also still like to bring a little toy truck or toy animal whenever we leave the house.  
  • I know I'm a little partial, but I think you are one of the most handsome little boys I have ever seen.  You are smart, curious, kind-hearted (usually), happy, energetic, and in love with your mommy (you do NOT like when Daddy gets too close to me).  The other day at dinner you announced that Daddy could not sit with me because I was married to you.  :)  
  • Our hearts are so full of love and adoration for you!
