* He can repeat almost any word you say and then use it in a simple phrase. His understanding of what you tell him is also amazing. We are working on counting, colors, numbers, letters and shapes.
* He is also able to communicate what he remembers. I'm not sure how long he has had the capability to remember things that have happened, but he now has the communication tools to convey it to us. It is quite remarkable to hear him tell us that we need to put our hands up when going through a tunnel, or how we saw those animals at the zoo, or how we found Easter eggs at the park and went on the swing with Papa, how he played a ball game with "Uncle B" at his house, and even played a game with "Cincoln" outside at his house. It is amazing to see how his mind is working!
* He also likes to sing the songs "Ring Around the Rosies" and the "ABCs".
* Probably his favorite thing to do is be outside. Rain, sun, snow, hurricane, it doesn't matter. That boy is an outdoor guy.
* When talked into being inside, he loves to play with anything car or truck related.
* He also loves to "fix" things with any kind of "tool" he can find.
* He also loves to push around anything with wheels - Cozy Coupe, stroller, he doesn't discriminate.
* Throwing, kicking or rolling balls are still a favorite as well.
* And he absolutely LOVES music. He especially likes playing on his guitar, keyboards and xylophone. He also loves listening to Jack, Dave, Jimmy, John and David - much like Mom and Dad. Even though I created a toddler Pandora station for him, he still prefers the Jack Johnson station any day.
* He also loves his cousin Lincoln who he just recently was able to say - "Cincoln"! And he also loves, "Poppy" (especially looking at pictures of him) and loves playing pirates with Grandma. He also likes to go to "Uncle B's house" (Uncle T - Travis). Not sure why he calls him Uncle B since that's really Brian's nickname, but it makes me laugh each time :)
* And he LOVES his little sissy. He especially loves giving her kisses and holding her. He also likes to try and make her smile or laugh at him. It is SO sweet!
* He still likes to terrorize Bella. He thinks Bella was put here for him to jump on top of, "ride", push things into, etc. Poor Bella girl :) What a very patient dog.
* He still likes the iPad and could watch Jake & the Never Land Pirate Band, Hot Dog Dance, anything kitty related or look at pictures/videos of himself on there.
*He still could care less about what he's wearing, which is fine by me since I still love to dress him :)
We love our T and are so proud of the boy he is becoming!
We LOVE you so much, Tristan!!! You are such a special and amazing little boy! We are so very lucky and blessed!!
