New Chair




My grandma sent Michael money for Christmas so I decided to finally get him the Anywhere Chair from Pottery Barn. He loves to sneak off to his room and sit and read books, so I figured the chair would be perfect. He is enjoying it so far.

What a Difference a Year Makes!

Snow Day January 2011
Walking and running everywhere now!

Snow Day in February 2010
He wasn't even walking yet.

Time is flying by faster than I ever imagined. Michael is growing like a weed. Just this week he seems so much older to me. I know he's gotten a little taller. And while I think he has always looked a little older or not very babyish I feel like this week the baby look has real slipped away. He is growing into a little boy now. He has really started talking up a storm in sentences. Saying things like "Daddy bye-bye in the car" or "Open door please" or "More oranges here please". He really amazes me everyday. By all of the pleases you might can tell I am a stickler for manners. I 97% of the time always make him say please before and thank you after he gets what he wants or needs. He is really starting to get in the habit. If you know me it's music to my ears. LOL

His 2nd birthday is fast approaching. We have decided on the Disney Cars theme. When I tell you my child is OBSESSED with cars that's an understatement. Often times the first word out of his mouth in the morning is "cars" and wants to play with them immediately. He plays with them ALL day long! He loves the movie too and wants it on in the background all of the time. We got him a Lightening McQueen Lil Quad for his birthday and I can only imagine how much time we are going to spend outside riding that thing.
