Easton - 3 years old

At three, Easton is full of energy (really, what 3 year old do you know that isn't).  He continues to love Disney-Pixar movies and is in love with numbers and letters.  Now that he can recognize and identify all 26 letters and number 0-13, we are working on numbers above 13 and the sounds of the letters.  So far, he is the best at "S" sssssssssss!  I'm also trying to get him to identify words that start with certain letters.  This has led to him yelling out "Look, E is for Easton!" when we see signs with Es on them.  He knows that K is for Kenny and M is for mama as well.  He is constantly amazing me with all he knows and wants to learn.

I have to say that although I think I will forever mourn the "nap time" that is no longer consistent, I do love the independence that he is showing.  I love that he will get up at night and come find me if he needs something and doesn't just sit and cry in his bed.  I love that he wants to help and enjoys doing his "jobs." Just this week I started him emptying the silverware from the dishwasher and he LOVES it. 

We continue to work on being nice to his sister.  He gets frustrated that he doesn't know how to play with her yet.  He does love the attention she gives him and once she starts laughing will do anything to keep her going. 

Easton is still not potty trained.  In fact, he still doesn't seem ready to me, but I think it's time to jump in and see if he will catch on quickly or not.  He is ready to go into Sunbeams at church in January and as of now, is the only one that is not potty trained.  In his defense, he does have the second to the latest birthday in the year as well.

We love our bubbers and are so glad he's ours!

Although he will never admit to needing naps, sometimes he just can't hold on any longer.  I loved that he conked out this day (in his Woody gear) with his feet in the air.

 The face I normally get when I ask him to smile.

 We took him bowling for the first time in Utah during Thanksgiving.  He was in HEAVEN.  He loved every minute.
