Cute Things Adrian Does

Adrian is doing so much these days! today when I dropped Adrian off at Mrs. Feri's she told me she lets Adrian sit at the little table on the little chair with the older toddlers. Of course once in a while she'll find him standing on top one of the chairs and that almost gives her a heartattack.

Some things Adrian is doing that are heart-wrenchenly adorable...

-I say "one" and sometimes Adrian will say "two". "Three, Four and Five" sounds like jibberish but he always smiles when I count to five because "tickle tickle" comes after "five".

-He will initiate a hug (head on your shoulder) and a kiss (no longer open mouthed and full of dribble) if you're sitting down near him.

-Says "done" when he's finished with his bottle or sippy cup. He will hand the beverage container to me after he says "done".

-He'll try to use a fork and spoon. Most of the time food doesn't make it into his mouth but he gets the concept of stabbing food with a fork. Our little dining room table is pretty much shot from him stabbing it every night with a fork.

-Calls anything with four legs "gou gou" (Mandarin for dog). Most of the time children are all "babies" to him.

-Knows it's bathtime when I say "bath" and will crawl up the stairs calling out "bath bath".

-Has figured out how to come down the stairs backwards on his stomach. I think he has finally realized he needs to lift up his chin so it doesn't scrape against the stairs when he flies down them.

-He sometimes mimics when I tell him to say "Please and Thank-you" except it sounds more like "pleaaa and tu tu"....love it!

-He is finally sleeping a bit longer than 3-4 hour stretches. Zac and I feel like a million bucks on the rare occasion when he sleeps through the night....ah! sleep, it is still such luxury!

Frying Pan Farm Park (Warning! Photo Heavy Post)

Adrian, does this look familiar?! but this duck doesn't have a temp. gauge attached.
















Adrian went to Kidwell Farm at the Frying Pan Farm Park this weekend with his little friend, Ben. The farm was so great with its 2009 new births-calves, piglets, lamb and kids. Not only was Adrian finally able to see these farm animals in person but he got to pet them too. For so long they were just pictures in his books. His favorite seemed to be the bunnies. While he was petting the calf, he tried to eat his shirt. Maybe the calf wanted Adrian for a snack. Little Ben would shake the cage and say repeatedly "out", he must wanted to free the animals. I think we have a Jr. PETA on our hands. It was really neat to see a peacock with its tail fanned out, it's so rare that happens.

Meeting The Easter Bunny At Easter Brunch

Little man took great interest in the Easter Bunny at brunch today. At one point he was even chasing after the bunny with his arms up wanting the bunny to hold him. After seeing how fond he was with the bunny today we think he may enjoy Disney World and all their characters.

Rainy Weekend With Auntie M.

We are so blessed to have Auntie M. here with us while Mrs. Feri was on vacation last week.
