My little guy is the cutest and darnest thing ever! He seriously makes J.D. and I laugh everyday!
He is so TALL! He is in 4T and is not even 3. We have to watch what we buy because we have to get the slim 4T things. He is so skinny it's hard to find clothes that don't hang to big on him. BUT if we buy smaller things then he looks like he has high waters or his tummy is slightly showing. It's so hard! My mom tells me that she went through the same thing with most of her kids. Dawson definitely gets his height from my family. Most of the guys in my heritage were all over 6 feet. The women are shorter for sure, but there is a lot of tallness.
Dawson is getting so good with his coordination too! He loves to kick the ball around the house, and is asks me everyday if we can go outside to play baseball. He still has a love for animals and especially horses. We had to buy him 2 new hats already because the ones from his birthday are pretty gross and WAY worn down. He still loves to have the least amount of clothes on as possible. He loves to dance! When fun music comes on from a movie or my phone, he will always grab my hand and say, "Mommy! Dance with Dawson!" I am the luckiest mom ever! He is better at taking his vitamins and flouride pill than I am. He reminds me quicker than I can think. He is still into trains and dinosaurs-it amazes me how much he loves Jurassic Park the movie. It doesn't scare him at all! He loves that movie! He has become quite the expert with making mac and cheese! lol!
Dawson can be proper sometimes- he won't eat without a place-mat on the table. He loves the routines of getting the place mat, silverware, cups and preparing to eat. He loves to shower by himself! He has learned to wash himself and rinse his hair without my help. He even closes his eyes. He is the biggest helper with cleaning. laundry, and dusting!
Dawson is talking so much too! Every night I try to go through sounds of letters with him. He was starting to have a lisp and stick his tongue out for 'S' and 'l' and 'f.' BUT after 3 nights of the sounds he doesn't even make the lisp noise anymore. We have still been going over sounds for about 3 weeks, just to get him used to hearing and making the right sounds. My mom started pre-school with my nephew, and when Dawson wants to, we go as well. We have learned about circles and Dawson is practicing writing his name. We are starting colors as well. He is doing amazing!
He is eating so much better than ever before! Mostly because he isn't sick and is growing so much. We only have 2 more molars on the top to get. We went to a dentist appointment and my Dawson got a small chip fixed. They drilled, and sanded, and filled the chip in- he didn't cry! Not once! He likes the dentist! He didn't cry for his hair cut today either! He lets me know when he's wet, and will hide to work on his stinkies. He isn't a big fan of nursery, but he loves to go to primary with me and sing the songs with the older kids. I love it too! He isn't always so perfect- he can definitely throw a really good fit. He plays J.D. and I against each other ALREADY! If I say no, he will go ask his dad. Is that normal for a 2 year old?
Other random updates- he love his face tickled with my hair. He loves to have his back tickled. He loves to drive his four wheeler around the house to get things done. He loves to sing in sacrament for church. He will lead with his hand and sing. I didn't teach him this- he just mimicked the chorister. He loves to go to church and get on his nice clothes. He loves routines or doing things like putting chapstick on, putting hand sanitizer on, brushing teeth, going potty on the toilet before getting in the tub, reading scriptures and saying prayers before we eat, and getting ready for the day. He is a little prankster and tease with J.D. and I. It's the funniest thing. He loves to be held and rocked.
AND last but not least- he has slept through the night 3 nights in a row!!! :-) AND he is still taking a nap most days. :-) We are happy parents!
