His favorite foods:
- pineapple
- chicken (especially from CFA)
- milk
- gatorade
- cereal (all kinds- the healthy stuff and the sugary kind)
- oatmeal
- yogurt
- peaches
- french fries
- eggs (scrambled)
He eats 2-3 (small) bowls of cereal everyday and has 2-3 yogurts a day too. He loves all fruit, and eats just about everything I cook. He has always been a good eater, there are only a few foods he doesn't like- one being hotdogs. If he does taste something he doesn't like, he will say "uck-key".
His favorite toys:
- phones- lately, he has been pretend calling people. His conversation goes something like this "hey, doing?, hang out, later, bye bye". I wonder where he gets this from.
- vaccuum- both the real one and his play vaccuum. he LOVES them! He always wants to clean the living room and he does a pretty good job!
- lawn mower- he loves to push it back and forth in the yard. When we go out to mow the lawn- Aiden mows right behind us.
- car- his cozy coupe that we got him for his 2nd b-day. He loves putting keys in the ignition and driving around the house or outside. he will stop for gas too- it's funny!
- puzzles
- tools- real and play, he likes to "fix" his other toys and the tables around the house. His toy power drill is his favorite!
- yellow tonka truck- he likes to push it back and forth in the living room and he will also ride in it. Sometimes he pushes and walks with it around the house.
- legos- he likes building towers, but he always needs a playmate when playing Legos
Talents/Skills
- he can count to 10, and sometimes 11 & 12 and then he says "a teen, a teen, a teen, twenty!!"
- he can say and recognize all letters. the magnets on the fridge have been helpful in this skill :-)
- manners- he says please, thank you, and welcome (your welcome).
- directions, he is very observant in the car. he recognizes when we are on the road where church is located, and when we pass the gas station we usually use, he says "gas". Many times he knows if we are going away from home, he will say "wrong way home".
- He weighs 35 lbs and is 38 inches tall.
- He wears 3T shirts and 2T shorts
- His shoe size is 9-10
- made a mess
- have some- (asking and offering)
- Hi Ty/ Ty-bo
- holy moly
- I see you
He loves to "help" me do things- laundry, cooking, picking up, etc.
He loves buttons and switches! He is so curious to push a button to see what it does. In the car he presses the garage opener and he is facinated. He will snatch a cell phone and press all the buttons he can until he gets in trouble for having it.
He is also crazy about air conditioners. He points them out when we go for walks or when we are in the car. He tells us when they are on or off, and if it is off he waits in anticipation for it to turn on.
*** I know this time in his life will be memorable because he is learning so much constantly. We have had our share of fits and whining, but Aiden is a great kid. He brightens my day everyday and whenever I can get them, I'll take the hugs and kisses from him.
