Paul now has to share his birthday (May 17) with his younger sister. We realize this will "scar him for life" but we figured, if you are going to mess your kids up, you might as well pick something good, right? :)In any case, lets talk about Paul.
- His favorite thing to point out is a train or train track. We hear lots of trains at our house, although we cannot actually see the tracks. He often calls out train or train track at random times and I must answer that "no, there is no train or train track" several times before he will let the possibility go.
- Paul has recently discovered he can make "conversation" and often does so quite forcefully until someone responds to him. If he is telling you something, he will get louder and louder with his word (or words) until you acknowledge him in some way.
- His vocabulary is growing by leaps and bounds. Some of his favorite words (aside from train or train track) are "coppeee" (coffee- ask Daddy how he learned this one :), cheese, cracker, cookie, drink, "nack" (snack), bear, snake, baby, "Abeka" (Rebekah), "Jajup" (Jacob), and of course DADDY!!
- Paul is a very climby kid. Seriously, he can climb up pretty-much anywhere the "big kids" can. And he loves to climb up somewhere and then jump off. Fortunately he has not hurt himself yet, but I imagine it is only a matter of time.
- He likes to put on other people's shoes (like Rebekah's or Daddy's) and clomp around. He would probably be happy to put his own on, too, but bigger ones are a little easier right now.
- Paul continues to be cute as all get-out and I just want to "eat him up"-especially those blonde curls :)
I love you my sweet little boy! May God continue to form you into a caring and thoughtful little man!
Happy Birthday Paul!!!
