Things That I Want to Remember

The other day, I spent some time reading through old posts. It was fun to watch Lincoln grow up in front of my eyes. I realized that I haven't written much about things he is doing/saying these days.

-He figured out how to take his shirt off by himself this summer. If we are at home, it is not uncommon for him to be without a shirt.

-He loves to wear his cowboy boots. There have been several days when he has worn shorts, boots, and no shirt this summer.

-Lincoln has a rolly polly friend. Anytime we see a rolly polly he thinks it is his "little fellow." It doesn't matter where we are. He often says, "I wonder how my little fellow got here."

-The boy talks ALL THE TIME. He often uses his hands when he talks.

-At the beginning of the summer, I heard the phrase, "I won't (fill in the blank)." Thankfully, this willful phase passed fairly quickly. I'm sure I haven't seen the last of it.

-He also says, "Don't mind if (fill in the blank)." My all time favorite was "Don't mind if we celebrate your birthday at Chuck E Cheese mom."

-The boy also has developed a love for Sonic drinks. Every once in a while, he will ask me if I feel like a Sonic drink. One day I was trying to explain Sonic's happy hour to him. A few days later, he asked me if it was a "happy day." It took me a while to figure out that he meant happy hour. I decided not to correct him. I'm not sure I want him going around telling people that he and his mom love happy hour. : )
