"Tars" and "Sharks"

Hey Buddy,
I can't believe I've even found time to write this, I've been crazy busy packing for our trip to FL. Packing for you two and myself is a daunting task!

Monday was mine & Daddy's last night of bowling so we took you and Hannah with us. You guys did great and were so well behaved. I got out your sign language book for you to look at. You immediately put your hands above your head and said "tars" and did the sign for stars! And on our way to the bowling alley Hannah pointed at a billboard and mentioned that there was a shark on it. You said "shark" clear as day! You're really starting to take off verbally. I'm very excited because it's so much fun when babies start talking and really communicating.

Tuesday we were eating lunch with Granny and Aunt Bonnie at Scholozsky's (funny name, serious sandwich) and you did the sign for food! I love that you're able to do sign language and let me know what you want.

Today was Daddy's birthday party at work. His department took him to Sardi's and they also bought him a cake. You inhaled your cake but not before rubbing it all over your face! When you were through with your piece you started reaching for mine! The one thing you will soon learn is Mommy does not share her sweets! :-)

You've also been saying "Pung-bob". Hannah has started watching her Spongebob movies again and you love him too! Anytime you see him you start yelling "Pung-Bob!!" It's so cute.

I can't wait for our trip to FL. You've always been an excellent traveler and I know you'll do great this time too. Plus I'm very excited about taking you to Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. You're going to love the animals!! Not to mention we're going to spend time with your Uncle David and Aunt Karen. We only see them about once or twice a year and I know Uncle Dave really misses you guys.

So, I probably won't write again until after our trip. I just wanted to tell you about "tars" before I forgot :-)

I love you sweet buddy,
Mommy

New Roommate

Hey Buddy,
I have wanted to write this letter for a while now but I wanted to have a picture to go along with it. Even though I've been reluctant to do it, we moved you into Hannah's room on March 25th. Hannah was so excited for you to be in her room! She almost cried when I started to just put your crib back in our room because I was having trouble moving it.
I worried how you would do without me but you were fine. You & Hannah talked for about a half hour but then you both nodded off. You've slept fine in there ever since.

In other news, you can now do the signs for toothbrush, lights, stars, and book. Your new favorite book is 'Moo, Baa, La La La'. You'll sit and look at it all by yourself and make all the noises. You can also say "Jack" and "baby" now.

You're growing up so fast little man!

I love you!!
Mommy

You ripped that Madagascar poster the 2nd night you were in your new room.

Hannah is always excited to see you when she wakes up.

While you were using the potty Hannah was doing the sign for potty for you.
