Mess, Crash, Noise, Squish
The title of today's post is in reference to Drew's new favorite words. Oh, imagine the fun a little boy can have with those words in his vocabulary! He loves to knock random things over and yell "CRASH" over and over again. He also is happy to bang on things, stop his feet, etc and let us know that he is making noise. Squishing crackers is oh, so, fun and letting us know that he has then made a mess is equally as fun!
Little Man definitely keeps us in stitches. He has the absolute best personality! Recent obsessions also include Tho.mas the Train and B0b the Buil.der. He has a B0b doll that he must know the location of at all times or else a freak out will commence.
We have finally been having nice enough weather to play outside and Drew is in his glory. We have to make him come in most days. Last weeked we washed his jacket 4 times because he was so dirty! Time to get a second jacket I think. We love that he loves the outdoors so much - this summer will be so much fun!
We can't wait for Eas.ter as he will really enjoy all of the festivities. We are going to color eggs with him tomorrow night - that should be a wonderful (but fun) mess.
17 months today - how in the world did that happen??? He is such a little boy now....all hints of baby are gone.
In TTC #2 news - blood work tomorrow, blood work and ultrasound Monday - swimmer delivery Tues, IUI most likely Wed or Thurs. Send all of your positive engery our way please!
We'll leave you with a pic of Drew's latest trick from this evening:

Parenting
Hold your hats, folks.....two blog posts in as many days!!! Truth is, Little Man is napping and I am home with him today so I decided to write up another post. Clearly this blog has taken a back seat, but for good reason. You see, I don't bother to spend nearly as much time online these days as I would much rather spend it with the Little Dude! When I do, I am usually on the iPad and never think to blog from there!
I titled this post Parenting because I want to take a moment to write about the fact that I am over the moon in love with being a parent. Even more than I could have ever imagined so. I amazed every day that I am lucky enough to be responsible for this tiny human being. He brings me more joy than I ever though possible!
Some updates about Drew:
*His vocabulary AMAZES us....Dude has easily 75+ words and is stringing them together in 2 -3 word sentences. You tell him something once and he does not forget. EVER.....
*Little Man LOVES to be outside - we can't wait for the snow to finish melting around here so that we can spend more time playing outdoors.
*Drew continues to be in the 95th percentile for height and 25th for weight. Long and lean.
*We have started to enter the realm of pretend play. It is so much fun watching him make food for us to try, etc.
*He continues to love all things with wheels, trucks, cars, trains and tractors. Give the boy one of these things and he is a happy camper!
As I said earlier, we really don't think there is anything better than waking up to the smiles and craziness of our Little Man - he completes us! One picture to thank you for following along!

Vacation
We just returned (a week ago) from an absolutely amazing week long vacation in Sarasota Florida. One of the perks of being a teacher in NH is February Vacation. So, we took the opportunity to get out of the cold and enjoy some warmer weather. My Mom came along with us and Drew absolutely adored spending the week with his Nana! Mom and Mama adored the couple of evenings we got to go out because Nana babysat!
The first day we were there, Little Man was already checking out the sand and waves!

He had more fun playing in the sprayers used to rinse the beach sand off!

Had lots of fun playing in the pool (we stayed at a wonderful resort on the ocean with great pools too!
Played in the sand.
Got lots of love from Mom!
