Happy 20 month birthday. I didn't realize it was your twenty month birtday till late in the day, but we did have a really great day. This evening we went to the Marble Slab and you were happy that there were fans there. But must have said 20 times that: 'fan not turning'. It's great that you are using lots of three word sentences. Another three word sentence you used this evening was 'ogre song again'.
It's interesting to see what things interest you. I'm sure they are the typical boy stuff, but it's great to see your interest vary from cars. Not that cars aren't great, but it's good to be interested in lots of things, to be well rounded. I really want you to be well rounded. I think your most favorite thing is Shrek. You love that movie. We have watched that movie more in the last month then I have ever watched any movie. Everyday I quote something from Shrek. Shrek has led into dragons and princess which you quite like as well.
Some of your other big things have been bugs. Whenever we are outside we dig in the garden to see if we can find bugs. Ladybugs are probably your favorite, although you also like "shiny" fly's and 'fiders'. The other outdoor thing you are really enjoying is sports. Baseball, basketball, soccer, golf. You don't really care what the sport is as long as it involves a ball. We did get you a basketball hoop and you love to score and point out every time we miss. The joy of bugs and sports is that we get to be outside in the nice weather we've been having.
Life is amazing with you kid. You listen very well. You are paying attention to "cars coming" and don't walk out on the road. You are able to jump with both feet, your running is becoming better. And you love to count and then race. Although the counting usually goes 'free, four, go'. And then you run. On Easter weekend we went out to dinner on a Saturday night and outside you enjoying running in there caged in area where their outdoor patio is.
You are a typical toddler when it comes to food, somedays you eat everything we give you and other days you only want hot chocolate and 'farties"
Your talking is what I am most proud of. Not that I'm totally responsible for it, but you are quite a good talker. I've written here about funny things you say and how clever you are without really knowing it. You also know that when you do something and we laugh, to do it again and we'll laugh again.
Life is great with you. I am so happy for the life we all have together.
love mommy

it is great that hes using 3 word sentences
He sounds like hes a well rounded kid to me
and Im pleased youre enjoying him so much
Love hearing how other people are so amazed by thier child. Micah is astonishing me on a daily basis. Mark
Oh is Lucas born on 17/8/2005? My nephew Stef was born on 22/8/2005 and my niece Renée was born on 24/08/2005.
But they don't use 3 word sentences yet, so 3 cheers for Lucas.
It constantly amazes me that even though Lucas and Mackenzie are 12 years different in age and the opposite sex, they are otherwise amazingly similar in appearance, development and personality. It's almost like reliving Mackenzie's toddlerhood all over again and it's SO MUCH FUN!!!!
It makes me wonder, are they so similar because of half of the genetics or is it because our parenting styles are so similar? Either way...we both have great kids!
Love,
Lori
Lori, My mom says fairly often how much Lucas reminds her of Kenzie. Did your mom or dad have really blond hair when they were a kid?
