Little Man in a Bath Robe

A friend gave Spencer this monogrammed bath robe when he was born. Put it on him for the first time tonight...pretty cute! And he loved being naked as a jay bird underneath :)

Picky Picky Picky

Help! Spencer is such a picky eater and it is driving me crazy! Every meal has become a battle and he has gotten to where he won't even try anything healthy (even stuff he used to like). I make him a plate of a few things for every meal - usually one I know he likes and 2 or 3 things that he may not but are good for him. He will eat only the thing he likes and nothing else, and then sometimes he won't eat anything at all. We have tried time outs during meal time because otherwise he just sits there and cries. I don't want to give into him but I am on the verge of just feeding him the things he likes for a little peace. I knew having another eater like Wright was a long shot, but this is horrible! I feel for all moms of picky eaters out there...

Spencer's Words and Other Updates

Spencer is finally talking a lot more and repeating much more than before. Some new words are...
- Love you
- Chesca (Miss Francesca, his teacher)
- Bible
- Rye (Wright)
- BotBot (robot)
- Guide (outside)
- Bar (cereal bar)
- Cuh Cuh (cookie)
- Meeal (milk)

Other updates:
- Still says "now" after everything. "Bye bye now", "Guide now", "Mama, blah blah blah blah blah, NOW!"
- Like his brother did, when I say that he needs to stop something, he starts saying "no" and spanking himself on the leg!
- Unlike his brother, he is an extremely picky eater. He frequently skips meals if he is not offered anything that he likes.
- He is very good at climbing and can go up the fort ladder and down by himself. I also found him trying to drive the Jeep car the other day!
- He falls and hits his head at least 5 times a day and it never seems to phase him
- He constantly sings or hums the tune of "Twinkle Twinkle"
- He still gets frusterated that he can't say what he wants and whines a lot when he needs something - working on this :)
- He is still the biggest flirt and wins over everyone with his smile and dimples. The teachers at school love him and come up to me talking about how precious he is all the time. Definitely a charmer :)

Wright Quote

My favorite Wright quote of the weekend was "Mom, what games are we on today? Are we on baseball? Or basketball? Or football?... (long pause) Or golf?" Can you tell we watch a lot of sports at our house!?
