Where has the time gone? This little life has flown by, right in front of my very eyes. I cannot believe what all he has already become! There are SO MANY things that have changed that I don't know I can remember them all. I don't know if Little Man is 21 months old now, or going on 21 years. He is so independent!
~ He has chores he does. He puts his cars in his "bu" (bucket). He "fee Rah" (feeds Rush) when the bowl gets empty. This can take awhile, but he does it all, including cleaning up spills. We get the mail and he carries it. He even ran and got me a towel when there was a spill and I was holding rush off from getting into it!

| He set the table for dinner. |
~ Dinner time is a fun event. As we sit, he waits with his hands folded and insists we "pay". We might have to bow another time or two during the meal, but it makes me happy for him to want to do it!

"Coo kin"
He LOVES to help, so he stirs and scoops a lot for me. When I say I'm cooking, he drags the kitchen chair over to help. |
~ He knows when things are "ha ha" (hot hot) so not to touch them. When I say I'm cooking, he says ha ha and points. He'll also shiver when things are "col".
 |
| Reading a "Tom" book. He loves these! |
~ He loves a good "boo" (book). His favorites right now are his "Bi bul" and "Tom". He will look at every page. If he sees a thing he knows, he'll name it. If not, he will point and wait for you to tell him what it is. If you tell him once, he'll remember it and point when you ask where it is!
 |
| Riding a "Hor". Speaking of, he points out the Polo horse on his and Chris' shirts each time he sees them. |
~ He knows so many animals! He has puzzles, books, and knows a lot of the sounds. He likes "hor", "sar" (shark), "tu tul" (turtle), and "fi" (fish).
 |
| "Tee". Please note the stool he has put in front of the sink, the water he is about to turn on, and the "Tom" toothpaste he likes! |
~ He has a potty seat. He will sit on it every once in awhile, but we haven't gotten to the training stage. We're just getting used to it. He loves it! He discovered it can move, and will put it in front of the sink to reach the water. He's too smart- this could be trouble!
 |
| "Cheese!" I absolutely LOVE how his shorts and tie turned out. He loved his "Bu Tie" too! |
~ What a little man he is! Clothes are fun these days. He gets to chose what he wears. Granted, I give him two things to chose from, so it's still what I want. :) Depending on the brand/fit, he varies. Shirts are a 2T/3T and shorts are 2T. He wears a 7 1/2 or 8 shoe! As much as he's been sleeping this summer, folks keep telling me he's growing. Oh dear.

| Loving Mama! |
~ He LOVES to kiss, hug, and hold these days. He finds his way into my lap often, and I wouldn't trade it for anything!
There are so many more things. We can have conversations that I can actually understand. He's putting words together to make phrases. He's starting to use his manners: "pees", "tan ku". He waves bye, and it's hilarious when accompanied with the loudest "bye" he can. He'll hand me his plate as I clear the table with a "here".
He has grown up so much in the last few months! He really is my Little Man.
