A few of my favorite things...

Drew is quite a character.
I am sure all kids are but since I've only really been around one kid for such an extended period of time, I can only talk about Drew!

Here are a few of my favorite things...about my boy.

1. He calls Saber "boo". And now all dogs are boo.
2. He likes to call all animals by the sounds they make rather than their actual names. For example, a monkey is not a monkey but rather an "ewew ahah". (Some times you get hand gestures too).
3. Three quarters of the time his response will be "yeah". The other three quarters of the time it is no. I know what you are saying, it doesn't add up. Oh, but it does when you are actually in the room with him. Drew has a way of making sense out of confusion.
4. He prefers Bob (the tomato) over Elmo when watching cartoons.
5. Only Mr. Monkey and Mr. Elephant are allowed to sleep in his crib. He will read with "the others" but they will be thrown to the floor and told "NO" if we put them in his crib.
6. If you undress the boy, he will look for music and dance or just start running. The boy likes to be naked.
7. He can be bribed! Sad to say that sometimes, it is what you have to do to get through the moment! And mini-M&Ms are magical!
8. Drew loves to help his mommy. He finds trash and puts it in the trash can. We have to watch him to make sure non-trash items find their way to the trash.
9. Self-sufficient. My boy will get his own silverware (plastic ware) to eat. He gets his own bowl (out of the tupperware cabinet) and will put it back (dirty) if I'm not watching him.
10. He is a copy cat. I'll do something silly with him and then I'll see him do it again later in the day or with his daddy. It is so amazing to me how much of a sponge he is and how he will do it again but his way.

Well, I could go on...but I won't.

Maybe one day I will list 10 things about Tim I love! Or maybe even Boo.
