TOP FIVE #2- THE ROAD TO ONE YEAR!

I had so much fun doing my top FIVE last week, I thought I would throw another one out there in celebration of Drew's countdown to turning the big ONE...only 12 days away. So, enjoy this top five....

HOW I KNOW DREW KNOWS TO MUCH FOR HIS OWN GOOD....

#5- He quickly turns his head when he hears a car drive by and says "Car," smart boy!

#4-He comes knee or walker running every time he hears the dishwasher door open. What a big helper, NOT!

#3- He gets a big cheesy grin when he knows you are giving him something to eat that he LOVES (ex: peanut butter & jelly sandwich, ham, cheesy mini rice cake, graham cracker, cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese...just to name a few).

#2- He tears his bib off when he is done eating and hands it over to me.

#1- He repeats our actions, for instance I was just joking around with him because I thought it was so cute that he waved while pointing his finger, so I said "Oh, no you di' int'. So, now anytime I say it he knows exactly what to do...well we have to have a little fun right?!

A TOP FIVE....

Interesting title huh? Anyhow, I was just watching my little man today and as he quickly approaches his first birthday I thought to myself man he is becoming a little man. So, as my mind often wonders I thought of this top 5 list:

THE TOP 5 WAYS YOU KNOW YOUR BABY IS GROWING UP!!

1. Shakes his head no, when you ask if he wants to get out of the crib. Okay he shakes his head "no" anytime you ask him a question.

2. Pushes your face away when you try to give him a kiss (he does this during nursing)!

3. Wants to do things himself (ex... when you give him a snack he puts it down and picks it up again because to him its like he got it himself).

4. Stares at the video Monitor because he knows you are watching...spooky!

5. Goes right to the ladies in the church nursery and waves good-bye to you.

I think this growing up thing is soooooooo much harder for me then him! Does it ever get easier?!

By the way the picture is from the other night, Drew sweats just like his daddy...so David and I found it humorous to spike his hair...no hair products needed, pure sweat. We don't get out much! Below is another cute one...
