My red!

This little boy surprises me every day. He is learning so many new things everyday. He figures out how to say more and more things and his latest obsession is colors. He is obsessed with the color RED. If he sees anything red he will stop whatever he is doing and say "MY RED!!!" Needless to say, he prefers using red cups and red plates and red bowls and wearing shirts that are red... and he loves to play. He will play by himself for hours at a time. Most recently, he has started putting those square foam puzzle pieces together. He lines them up perfectly and he does it fast! (see picture)

Yesterday, I found him on his floor passed out and exhausted from playing. lol


This morning I walked in his room and found him sorting colors! He took all up the stack cups and matched them up to the ring that matched. When he saw me, he then had to tell me what each color was (and especially pointed out to me his favorite color "my red!") I know every parent thinks their child is a genius, and well, I'm no exception. ;)

Back in Christmas of 2005, my uncle took pictures of my girls and make collages out of them. They've been in my livingroom since then, and I've been wanting to do some of my boys too. Last week, I finally decided to get it done. So I took all the pictures last week and then yesterday I put together the collages. I think they turned out so well! So now I just have to wait until they get here next week. I'm so excited!

Here is Addison's, with his background appropriately in red: (I scanned in my scrapbook paper to make the backgrounds... clever? I thought so too.)

And here is Sean's:
