Rece - 30 months and then some

Can't believe that we will have a 3 year old in about 4 months....


Rece had a great summer, he turned two and a half and we celebrated with a big cup of fro-yo for his "half birthday" - he kept saying "but it's not my real birthday". True enough, mommy wanted fro-yo.


Things he loves right now:

- Baseball

- Football

-Michigan Marching Band - he plays a pretend tuba and marches around the living room to the tune of the Michigan fight song playing on the fridge magnet we have.

-Reading books, loves the Llama Llama books

-School - riding the tricycle, playing football with his pal Nick and being the boss of the toddler room since he is now the oldest one left. He will move to the pre-school room at 3.

-Shrek & Nemo

-Tractors

-Hot Wheels and all things with wheels

He is still a constant chatterbox and I love that we can have a conversation on the way home from school. He is getting into pretend a lot more now and has quite the imagination.

We are blessed that Rece is pretty even tempered. He does of course have his times of whining and has a mini-fit every once and a while but thus far we have avoided a lot of drama. He is very well behaved when we go out to eat or shopping, I think this is because since he was born I hauled him in and out of stores every weekend while we killed time while daddy was studying at home. So he is used to, and likes going to Target and Wegmans and the mall. Score.

Deep Thoughts - 2

Rece from the back seat of the car talking to us in the front : "Daddy do you remember when we saw that crash and the sirens"

I reply "Yes, I remember that"

Rece - giving me the 'You have to be kidding me mom" look - "I was asking Daddy"

While watching a DVD on the computer so daddy can watch the Tigers on TV:

Jeremy - "Rece get back from the TV, Rece - get back..."
Rece - "Daddy, this is the laptop." He walks around the corner and points "THAT is the TV"

Gotta love the toddler who thinks he is smarter than his parents at 2 and a half.
