Can I say how smart this kid is?

O.k., I know that I am totally biased by this kid is so smart he just makes me laugh all the time. Last night we were on the way home from picking up Dominic and Sawyer was just being his normal little chatty self. We were asking him about his day and he was asking us about all the things that we passed on our drive. At one point I suggested that we count for daddy so that he could see how smart Sawyer was getting. So we start off, one, two, three and so on. At ten I stop counting with him because I figured we were done. Ten was as high as we had practiced counting in the past. Well I am sure you all know where this is going but that little stink just kept on counting. He made it to twenty and at that point we were just all laughing because we were so surprised and he sound so dang cute.


Another cute thing that he is starting to do is read along with me. One of his favorite books to do this with is, Go Dog Go. His little voice is so sweet especially when he reads along in the little sing song rhythm we use. He acts like such a big boy when he is turning the pages and when he is done he hops right up and puts the book right back on the shelf. He also loves his book, Visiting the Firehouse. He loves to tell me all the parts of the fire engine, all about the firefighters uniform and of course, wait for it..... STOP, DROP, and ROLL.


Sawyer is such a tenderhearted little boy, he is all about defending you if he feels someone is being mean or yelling. He will throw up his little hand and say, "Stop, bad, bad ____! You no be mean to____!" He is always really concerned if you are hurt. He will offer kisses and hugs and ask you if you are alright or better. He always asks, "You need doctor to fix it??" This is probably an indicator that we spend way to much time with the doctor. My poor little guy is always fighting one bug or another (oh, the pitfalls of daycare). Sickness aside we are so lucky to have a great lady who watches Sawyer for us. Her name is Eliza and she is so kind and loving. Sawyer is always happy to see her and snuggle with her and get his hugs and kisses. He has many wonderful friends there and I always feel good knowing that he is somewhere being loved, having fun, and learning new things. We are very lucky!

I had forgotten that you should never teach your child to say cheese! Man what a little cheeser!

Our New Year

Our New Year had stated out with an undecided mind when it comes to weather. We alternate between freezing cold and snowing like no other and gorgeous days in the 50's. Sawyer loves it outside so it's nice to have some warm days occasionally. I really can't wait for spring!
This is a cute but shot of Sawyer and Uncle Dommy in their skinny jeans. Sawyer got his for Christmas from his uncle so of course when Lil D was down helping me out by babysitting they had to be twins. Too Cute!
Uncle Dommy and Sawyer fooling around.
Sawyer exhausted and fighting another ear infection. Poor baby!
When the weather is to cold we head to the mall to hang out and play. They have a great little play area for the kids to run around and get rid of all that extra energy. Sawyer checking out the bulldozer.
Playing inside the bus.
Sawyer's favorite train, Thomas!!!
Snoopy little guy hoping for a candy machine.
This kid loves buttons!!!
With the snow comes shoveling. Grandma bought Sawyer his own little shovel. Everyday when he gets home from daycare, if there is snow on the grass he has to get out his shovel and help clean it up. To bad it's so freaking cold!
Another thing he loves is snowballs. Watch out when this little guy is around he has a great arm and a deadly aim!

When the weather is warm we usually grab our best gal pal, Grandma and head to the park or the zoo.
They have nice little play ground at the zoo too. So packed this time of year it looks like your standing in line at a theme park just waiting to get on the slides.
My cutie pie!
We asked Grandma to go to the park with us the other day, man was it beautiful!
Grandma is always willing to hop on the slides or go for a swing. She is amazing and Sawyer is so lucky to have such a fun Grandma to hang out with!
Climbing the rock wall.
I sure love my little guy!
We can't wait for some more warm weather!!!
