Me too…

Back2school_034rccbw Just love this kid. He’s such a rip these days. Awesome expressions (both physical and verbal). He wants to do everything the big boys do. Running out the door to "soccer practice" today cause he was going to play too. Everything is ‘me too’. Some of my favorites currently:

Hoorade! (that would be parade)

Hecho (Echo)

youuuuuuuur’e welcome.

Anything remotely resembling castle turrets is automatically "cinderella castle"

I go to Carbel (Carvel) for choc- o- lit ice cream (we did tonight since the big boys are at a Mets game and he wore the whole thing)

Whas that say? (asking about anything written- he so wants to read now)

I’m okay!(whenever he falls down and is not really hurt) or if you ask him if he’s okay you get "yes, I’m okay, mommy".

"BokChow"- supposed to be "ca-chow" what Lightning McQueen from Cars says. Timmy seems to think Lightning is chinese.

"tushy-burp" usually followed by a very boyish giggle

He has an infectious little laugh and ear piercing screams.

Scratches his back on trees.

"Hi there little fella"

"ohhhhh….sooooo cuuuuuute" (said in a high squeaky voice)

I’m sure there are other things he’s doing lately but I’m drawing a blank at the moment. Brain like a sieve these days.

He had his orientation at his school today, met his teacher Miss Diane and played in his new classroom. He starts separation (2.5hrs two days a week) this year so it’s a very big step for both of us. He loved it today, and his best pal Olivia is in his class so I am hoping it will ease the transition a little. We hit the park and pizza with Olivia and Sharon after orientation and had a great time. The two of them looked just so big sitting on the other side of the table eating their pizza. Such a difference since the beginning with highchairs, etc.

Timmy will have a very busy schedule this year with something every day. I know people think I’m nuts doing that but he just loves it. We are even doing swimming lessons one morning a week.

Potty training is proceeding. He totally has the pee thing down (really has only had 2 or 3 accidents since starting) but still no poop in the potty. We’ll get there. I am hoping to have it all done by December so he can go in the big pool (no diapers allowed) in Florida and terrorize Mel. Back2school_035rccbw
