smartie pants...

As Finnean gets closer to the big TWO...he continues to amaze us. He loves the Capitol of Des Moines. He talks about the dome all the time and loves it's golden color. He loves to stack blocks and his favorite thing to build is the courthouse. He will stack, stack and stack. Tear it down and stack it back up. He can throw a great spiral with the football and is working on asking you if you are "ready?!" before he chucks it at you. He loves Jerry and we are working on not throwing balls at him. We are working on saying sorry and learning to share (both very hard to do sometimes). He has really been drinking milk lately. He eats about two meals a day, the other one he just picks at his food. He still loves snack time. He loves to cook and bake with me. He really likes playing with his barn right now and shooting hoops is the best thing in the world. He says longer sentences and we are working on our "big boy voice." The whiny voice has got to go!! He likes it when his friends come over and he likes to watch Curious George in the mornings. He loves to give hugs and gives out kisses. He is still asks to sit on the potty...but no actual potty yet. The other day in the car he told me "drumming" and then "guitar." I didn't know what he was talking about...and then he said "music." of course, he could hear the drums and the guitar in the song. He does this all the time now and always asks for music to be on. Like I said at the beginning of this post...he amazes us! We feel so blessed to have such a fun little guy.
