Happy 3rd Birthday, Felix!



This year we got to see more and more of your personality and learn more about the little man you’re becoming and I’m continually reminded of reasons why I’m so lucky to be your mom.

This year you finally got to start eating dairy and soy and it was so much fun to see you be able to try new things. You quickly fell in love with cheese and ice cream and even edamame!  You love to eat berries of all kinds and noodles and French fries are probably your two favorite foods.

You’re talking up a storm and it’s so great to see you master new types of sentences. I’m so proud that you catch on so quickly but sometimes am sad when you stop saying a word in the ‘baby’ pronunciation of it. The one you use most often is mixing up her and she, you always use her (“Her’s going to the store”)

You love video games and fell in love with Skylanders this year. You still really love Legos and any toy your brother thinks is cool. You like painting and coloring and playing games. You and Henry are playing together a lot more and it’s so much fun to see you two interact.

You stopped napping this year and moved to a big boy bed. You have also nearly mastered potty training! You still ask for cuddles and often want to sit on someone’s lap on the couch, when I look at your brother I’m reminded that one day soon you won’t want those cuddles anymore so I’m holding on to every last one. You share kisses and hugs with everyone (mom, dad, gma Deb, gpa Jack and gma Aaka mainly).

You are three and everything that comes with it. I can’t wait to see what the next year brings but I know whatever it is, it will be great and you’ll keep on giving us reasons to laugh.
