2.75

Today Logan turned 2.75 or 33 months but who is counting anyway?  I cannot believe that he is almost 3 years old.  Below is a list of some of his favorites and non-favorites.

Likes- Airplanes, rockets, trains, tools, toolboxes, his toolbox book, acorns, high fives, school, gymnastics, yoga, and music.  His favorite daily activity is hiding when Brian comes home from work.  We talk about his hiding spots and potential hiding spots all day long and have come up with some really good ones.  However, each and every day, we end up hiding in the same spot; under the covers in the guest bed.  He also is acutely aware of his friends and asks about them all the time. He loves to get explanations about things and realizes that pretty much everything has a purpose or a story behind it.  Sometimes when I am answering a question he has asked, he will cut me off and say “OK, yeah, OK” like I am boring him.

Dislikes- Well as any parent of a young child probably knows, this list is ever changing by the second.  He does not like when we have to go home and he is not ready.  He begs me “Mommy, no home now, Logan wants more ride.”  He also really likes to tell me where I am turning, but dislikes when I turn in a direction that was not in agreement with him.

Working on- We have been in underwear for about 2 weeks now and he is really picking it up nicely.  We are also working on a wider range of colors, such as gold, purple and brown.  Brown vs. Black seems to be a challenge at times.  Sharing.  Waiting.  Speaking in full sentences.

Eating- His appetite has picked up a bunch since he had his adenoids removed with his second set of tubes (August 2012).  Milk is still by far his absolute favorite.  He loves pistachio nuts and edamame.  I think it has something to do with the shells.

Sleeping- Up until 3 months ago, Logan was a fabulous sleeper and very easy in regards to his bedtime routine.  Well, the bedtime routine has not changed but the easy sleeper part no longer exists.  He basically wants to just stay up and talk about the day, either his day or ours.
