Never a dull moment and random stuff




 
 
 
 
 
 
 
WOW time really flies by.  I guess I neglected our blog for a whole month. 
 
Thomas has been changing almost daily.  Unfortunately he's turning into a little boy, no more toddler.  His imagination is HUGE.  He loves to "paint pictures for us" at the dinner table.  He uses his napkin as his paint pallet and he paints in air.  He acts like he's so into creating his art, that it's funny!!  He loves to play outside with his "friend" and the dogs.  He puts on his two pairs of slippers and runs around on all fours pretending to be a dog.  Never a dull moment!!
He's learning how to read and write at school.  He loves to do a Preschool workbook we have here at the house.  After a bit, I say "Ok let's put it away" and he always gets sad and says "but I'm not done".  So we do a few more sheets.  He can count up to 20, although occasionally he'll count to "100 billion 95 dollars"  (never a dull moment).

He's started to ride his bike with no training wheels.  The first day we took them off, he rode like a pro.  Even making skid marks on Papa's driveway. 


His own vacuum
 
His new thing is doing little chores to earn money for his bank.  He'll give Jim a head massage for a quarter.  Today I asked him to help vacuum and wipe down the doors.  I gave him a quarter.  Hmm what else can we get him to do, outside of his normal day duties (that don't earn money).

Of course he's still growing like a weed, too.  He's 42" with long legs which he uses to climb the doorway.  Yes you heard me right, he climbs the doorway like he's a monkey.  It's the funniest thing!!
Yesterday I caught him on the couch, eating a graham cracker, which he was holding between his big toe and the toe next to it.  Never a dull moment :)
