Ack! It's Mid June. Let's Back Up To April?

Ugh.

Catch up posts again. The last few months have been hectic. I traveled to Texas in April to meet up with some girlfriend, our family suffered the loss of Brian's mom, Karen, in May, which was heartbreaking, and then two weeks ago I flew to San Diego and participated in the Rock and Roll 1/2 Marathon (yes, I finished, and yes, I ran the whole thing). So, there's been lots of sad and some happy too. We're looking forward to summer around here. Whenever that happens.

So, I'm going to backpedal a bit.

George. George, George, George. The child, he a precocious one. He's talking up a storm. Some of the things he comes up with? Wow. His favorite sayings right now are 'I rest my case,' 'That's ENOUGH!', 'Ayudame!', which is 'help me' in Spanish.

He's very into music and dancing right now. If a commercial comes on tv with music, he say's 'Mommy, let's dance!' He especially likes dancing to his Yo Gabba Gabba cd.

What else...he's counting to 20, knows all his ABC's (we're learning lower case right now), and all his shapes. Even octagon. He knows a stop sign is an octagon and refers to his favorite cereal as 'stop sign' cereal, as it is octagon shaped. We're working on colors.

George is OBSESSED with Thomas the Tank Engine (and trains in general), and pretty much everything car/truck (especially garbage trucks for some reason) ...okay, anything with wheels. I picked up Cars and Trucks and Things that Go a couple weeks back and it is definitely his favorite book of the moment.

He loves to go to the park and the beach and just be outside in general. Which is hard when the weather is uncooperative, but we're hoping for some better days ahead!

And here are some shots from the last four months. Enjoy!
