"Me Do It!"



Eric's favorite phrase is "Me do it!!!!!!!!!" Yes, the exclamation points are accurate. He will repeat it over and over sometimes adding a "myself" for emphasis. Of course it is nice that he is showing a little independence; however, sometimes I wish he would pick tasks that he can actually do or actually need to be done. We love our 2-year-old Eric.

Wendy Smiles

Wendy has a very contagious smile. We love how her little tounge comes out when she is happy.

An Exciting Day for Zach

What a day!!

It was an exciting day for Zachary. It began with his 4-year check-up. He was pronounced healthy and strong. He told the doctor that the nurse squished his muscles, this of course was in reference to having his blood pressure taken. He is in the 55th percentile for height and 60th percentile for weight. This means he has really grown, last year he was in the 30th percentile.

After the Dr.'s appointment we went to the store where Zachary chose chocolate filled eyeballs, for the treat to bring for his birthday to preschool.

Yes, you read that right preschool. Today was Zachary's first day of preschool. He was very excited to wear his backpack. When I dropped him off he just ran in and began playing. He didn't even say good-bye to his dear old mom. When I picked him up I asked how he liked it. He said it was great, but I couldn't get many more details.



When we got home from preschool, we waited about 1 hour, and then Dad came home and we started the party. Zachary's birthday party was just a family affair, but we sure had a great time. Both Eric and Zachary had fun opening presents, playing with the new toys, eating the pizza Zachary requested for dinner, and enjoying the Pooh Bear cake.




Overall it was a very busy, exciting day for Zachary. When it was bedtime, Zachary went quickly and quietly. He was really tuckered out.
