Really? I mean not even 330 some days ago it was January 1st….

My semester is over and I already have my classes registered for next semester…I do like the torture….

Since Knoah has turned 3, we have learned a few things.

1. He is obsessed with Spongebob. With it being DVR’d every time it comes on, there are episodes he has memorized…

2. He really does know how to play with his Nintendo DS. Moves the characters up and down, scoring points.

3. Has become a bit more whiny than normal and is a lot more protective of his things. Hitting the first person that takes something of his…not cool.

4. He is still short.

I am finishing up Christmas shopping and have a dilemma. He’s growing out of his 6 to 9 month pants, but 12 months are too long. The only thing I am thinking is do I have to bust out the sewing machine?? I hope not yet.

I am trying to get creative with his clothing. Buy age appropriate, no baby blue pull on pants and such but jeans are hard to come by at 6-9 months. Especially the ones without the diaper snaps.

He is picking up “bad habits” from his older brother and sister….who said they wouldn’t get along so well? :-) As of late, his favorite saying is “Shut up (insert name)” Agh! Will and I were talking the other day and I had remarked about how funny it is to see him become a little man. His walk is changing, he is more confident, his voice is becoming more clear and deep. He knows what he wants, when he wants but sadly the only thing that hasn’t changed is his temper…. quite laughable really. The only thing he wants to do is play the Wii, his DS or watch Spongebob. He tells me “no” that he’s not taking a bath and will go into the fridgerator and run with his food of choice.

Yes, he’s growing up. He isn’t a baby anymore. :-( What am I talking about, he will ALWAYS be my baby!!

The stares from the public are also changing, no longer do I get that lok of confusion, it has turned into a look and remarks of “Oh my goodness, look at him, he’s SO CUTE!” I find this strangly more acceptable. He is not seen as a child who is not “normal” he is seen as a child, who is different, but still a child.

This year has gone by so quickly! I cannot believe it! We have been in our new home now a year and are making this small house work for us, which I thought we’d never do. We are weeding through old toys, clothing and other stuff to help “un-clutter” years of gathering items. Still, I have a hard time letting go of things I find dear. I also realize that material items are just that and family is precious.
