Barrett Update and Arboretum in the Fall

As I'm sitting here trying to catch up on my blog posts...Barrett is singing his alphabet (frequent song that I'm use to hearing). But on top of that...he's doing sign language with each letter (or trying to...). It's amazing! He also can name the sound of each letter and tell you an object that begins with that letter. I'm impressed! Yes...I bragging, but proud of how much he is learning (and remembering).
More updates...

• He is 39" tall (can you imagine that?)
• Potty trained
• Getting better and better at taking off his clothes. Putting them on is hilarious to watch...but he tries.
• Still into cars, trucks, trailers, tractors, animal figures, puzzles, books, and running (everywhere he goes).
• Brushing teeth has improved with the help of a fancy red race car toothbrush!
• Has memorized his favorite bedtime stories.
• Worries about the big, bad wolf.
• Knows about Santa Claus, what he brings, and how he sounds...but hasn't quiet met him yet! (Last year was a disaster).
• Sleeps in a big boy bed, but yells out in the morning for Matt and I to, "Waaaakkke up!!!!" (This I really don't like)
• He's drinks from a regular cup almost all of the time.
• Loves Team Umizoomi
• Frequently says, "I can't believe it" / "You so proud?" / "I love you"/ "All aboard"
• Says some funny, funny, things that crack me up! I can't even list them all.

My sister recently paid us a visit. We took the kids out to the Arboretum and took some cute pictures. I love my sister! We have so much fun together. I truly wish that we lived closer to one another so that we could spend more time together.
Holidays are coming up soon, so that means I'll be seeing a lot her! I'm excited about that.
