That's my boy! Jason, who will be 3 in February 17, is over 3 feet tall now! He is doing much better on speaking in sentences and can identify several animals and their sounds (when he wants to), some colors, and can count to 3 (only because he's so stubborn he doesn't want to learn!). He's just now figured out how to "hop" off things, instead of just lunging or crawling off things. He loves loves loves cars, fire trucks, trains, dinosaurs and dragons. His favorite foods are broccoli, yogurt, cheese and milk. If he could, he would play outside all day. He is very smart. Yes, I am a proud mommy.Stay tuned for a post about Hunter.....
