OHHH the things they say...

In the past couple of weeks, Ian's personality has started to really pop out and so have his language skills. The things that come out of his mouth make us laugh so hard and sometimes ask "What??"

Here are some of our favorites:

-While listening to daddy's music in the car Ian informed me that "Mommy -- this is how I ROCK!"

-After finishing a dinner he liked, Ian looked up at me and said "Not bad Mommy"

-When he looked at the baby's 7 week ultrasound he said that "Hmmmm, that not baby!"

-If he doesn't want to go upstairs or do something for me he claims "Oh no, me too old" (I think Nano helped out with this one)

-He found out his shoes were in the car when he wanted to leave the house and right on que he expressed his feelings "Oh damit"

I'm going to be a BIG BROTHER

It's official !! Ian is going to be a big brother in May.

Marco and I are so excited about the new arrival--we are 8 weeks into the pregnancy. Marco has decided that he will take a stand in wife for the next 7 months. I am feeling great and this baby seems to hate sweets but loves chips!

Ian is so excited and we have been explaining everything to him bit by bit. He said he wants a baby sitster! He decided the baby's name would be 'baby sister' too. He has also decided that he has a baby in his tummy! This is going to be so much fun to share with him.

Our new cat... MEOW

While Marco and I were working in the garage, Ian found a new play toy. We had a kitty condo set up which of course the cats don't care a bit about but Ian thought he was our new pet saying MEOWW MEOOOWW. We are not sure how he squeezed into the tunnel but he had a tough time getting out. He was very determined to get out himself but decided that he was "TOO BIG" and "STUCK before asking dad for help.

Little Chef

Ian's new favorite hobby !! He's such a great helper

Pictures before leaving for school

It was raining so hard on Ian's first day of school, all the pictures had to be taken inside. He is showing off his super cool baseball lunch box and his elmo raincoat.
Can't wait until Thursday--Day 2

First Day of School

Today was fantastic... our little guy is growing up so fast! The first day of school went great and he told me today that he wants to go back in the morning. That's a good sign.
He painted a picture, played with a parachute and even went pee pee in the potty!!
Pictures to come soon!!

First visit to Ian's new preschool

Ian had a blast with Papa visiting this week even though Mommy was kinda grouchy. He has had a blast over the past weeks with Nano and Laura here last week and then Papa this week.
We had orientation for preschool yesterday and there were a couple of tears when I first left but they were quickly gone when he discovered the play ground and fish tank. He was having a blast when we picked him up an hour later. His teacher, Miss Angie, seems to be great with the kids and Ian can already say "Ms Anthee"! Tuesday will be his first full day. I think he's going to love it!!
