On February 5th Zac turned two and a half!
Kind of crazy to think I have a kid that old!
Zachary has been a joy to have.
I can't say that every minute of everyday, but he really is a good kid.
 |
| Zac found these sunglasses on the way out the door on day. |
|
|
|
-He is pretty obedient. But if he doesn't obey I just tell him what he can't do if he doesn't do something. He obeys fast. (I try to stay true to my word.)
 |
| Playing hid-in-seek. |
-He is full of energy and fun. Always wants to do something.
-He is super nice. His church leaders have loved him because he always wants to include everyone.
 |
| At super franks with Cardon (and Colby). |
 |
| Hanging out with Sara, while I was home packing. |
-He loves his friends. Sara, Cardon, and Colby get talked about a lot.
 |
| Towing his car. |
-He likes to do everything "fast." We don't slow down lots.
-He still naps, thankfully, we all need down time!
 |
| Free firetruck. He collected random things and rode it around. |
-He is obsessed with cars and can tell you many different types while on the freeway including: jeeps, hummers, mini coopers, vans, pickup trucks, (and the other day while with grandma) Lamborghini. He definitely knows what cars are "fast cars" by there sound and spoiler. He also knows tanker, dump truck, tow, and all other construction trucks. Right now we get a lot of " look!" and if we don't look and respond someone is not happy. Oh, and I'll make special not that "truck" now starts with an "f."
 |
| Holes in the toes of his shoes. |
-He had worn holes through his shoes (and now socks) from riding his bike.
 |
| Play dough with monster pieces. |
-He has discovered there are numbers beyond 10. And they get mixed on lots now with counting. He can count objects to ten pointing to them as he goes.
-Colors are still a challenge. Some days he is really good. Others it is just a guessing game. Whenever we practice he thinks he is so silly and says the wrong color for everything.
 |
| Playing with dad's old Legos. |
-He now thinks its fun to bug Jane. And is not very happy when she takes his cars. I see a lot of tears in the future about this. We have to watch him now because he likes to push her over. Don't get me wrong, she is still a favorite, and he loves her to death. Still lots of hugs!
-He can get Jane to laugh by saying "ya." And she is always watching him.
 |
| Traffic Jam. (He has been in the Bay area long enough to know about those.) |
-Some sayings he always says: "turn right to go left" (from the movie cars) when ever he is turning (matchbox cars or his bike), "rainbow," "thank you, you're welcome," "zac's a boy," "little walk."
 |
| Line up of cars. |
-He was introduced to the show "wonder pets" at grandmas and sings the song all the time (mixed with I am a child of God). And when he knows he is in trouble he will start singing it (or any other song on his mind) at the top of his lungs so he can't hear you talk.
-Is always thirsty. He drinks so much watered down apple juice.
-Loves anything tomato based. (red sauce, tomato soup, salsa, pizza sauce, etc. but will not eat a real tomato.)
 |
| Bubble bath! |
-The worst when it comes to brushing teeth!
-He is also not very good at lying down where you want him to for diaper changes. He will go on the other side of the room and want to be changed there. It's really annoying.
 |
| Enjoying his free balloon. |
 |
| Barnes and Noble is a favorite! |
-At least once a day I get asked if we can go to Target (he just plays with all the cars there) or some type of store.
-Not a chance he is thinking about potty training. He is scared of the toilet and will not sit on it.
 |
| Helping Grandma make cookies. |
-Thinks grandma is his new best friend. Does not want me around when she is around. Yesterday he was telling me to get out if the room bc he was doing things with her.
 |
| New car seat= new seat for baby one-six (in cup holder) |
-LOVES nursery. We went to grandpa and grandma's ward and he walked right into class saying bye. (I think it's really the trains, cars, and snacks.)
 |
| Miss match shoes. |
-Gets really lazy when it comes to taking on and off his shoes. It is always "too hard." Right now we are working in pulling down and up his pants. (this kid needs baby steps.)
-Always wants to hug Jane. He will say "twins." because I always say that about how they look like each other.
 |
| He said he was "practicing sitting" like Jane did. |
-Very observant. Can notice things from a mile away.
-Thinks it is so funny to call me Allie.
 |
| Playing games on iphone. |
-Loves iPhones.
-Has a good imagination.
 |
| "lion king" (I think all the rocks reminded him of pride rock.) |
-Wares 3T pants and 4T shirts.
-Can walk forever. He never is in a stroller or cart anymore.
 |
| While packing we found this! And had to try it on again. :) |
We sure think he is fun. And love him to death.
