3 might not sound that old, but to this mama, it
is really old. 3 years ago he made me a ‘mom’. He gave me the most important
title I will ever have; A title that can’t be taken away…ever.
He is the hardest working 3 year-old you will ever meet. His
favorite thing is mowing the lawn with dad. He would rather vacuum than play
with his toys. In fact, if I want his toys picked up off the floor, I just tell
him that we need to vacuum. It’s amazing how quick those toys are picked up.
When he is getting in trouble, I offer to let him help me do some work and he
straightens right up. He just loves to work!
He is quite the shy guy some times. Since he was really little,
he has clung to me or Brad wherever we go. Lately he is starting to venture out
on his own. When we go to the store he says “hello” to almost everyone we pass.
He is even brave enough to run down the aisles… sometimes a little too far for
my liking.
He is working on being the most polite little guy. He tells
everyone ‘thank you’, most of the time without a reminder. We are working on ‘please’
and ‘excuse me’. Although, when he farts he almost always will tell the world (giggle
included) before he says ‘excuse me’.
He is still a super picky eater. He loves chocolate milk and
hates water.
He still brings Monkey everywhere!!
He is learning his colors and his numbers. Red is his
favorite.
He is not the best sharer but he loves his sister. He is
constantly giving all of us “lovies”. Last weekend, I was in the rush of trying
to get them kids dressed for the day and I hear Corbin laughing and repeating, “Sissy
cute”. It was such a good reminder to slow down and enjoy the little moments
with them.
He is stubborn… man is he stubborn. He gives this mama a
run for her money in that department.
Each night before bed Brad and I each read him a story. No
exceptions!
Although, I hate to see him grow up so quickly, I love each
new experience with him.
