A boy and his Legos

Christopher's Aunt Michelle recently shared a HUGE bucket of Legos with him and he's loved breaking them in.

I caught him inside his "fort," wearing his cape and playing with some of the Lego guys.  Such a boy!

Eli's Birthday Party!

 Christopher's friend, Eli, turned 3 and Christopher had a lot of fun at his party!  The pinata was a big hit!

 Christopher was "helping" Eli to blow out his candles...

 Indulging in the birthday cupcakes with Eli...

Licking off the very last bits of icing, such that none goes to waste.

Learning to write his name...

So...pretty much every day at preschool, Chris makes a "play plan" of what he's going to do for the day.  He is also learning how to write his name on these "play plans."  Above is the most impressive version of writing his name we've seen so far.  We're so proud of him!

New bed!

Well...turns out Christopher isn't getting any smaller and was beginning to outgrow his toddler-size bed.  So...we got him a "big boy bed," which is a twin-size low loft bed and he loves it!  It's fun because he gets to climb a ladder to get into and out of bed and there is a fun tent/fort area beneath the bed that he can hide and play in.  Last night was his first night sleeping in his new bed.  This morning, we asked him if the bed was comfortable and he said, "sure was."  We asked him if he slept well and he said, "sure did."  Guess he likes it!

Coloring...

Breaking in a new box of crayons with Dad...

I don't think that's how you play...

We were playing the Chuggington matching game and as we were supposedly "cleaning up" at the end, Chris began sticking the cards between all his fingers and toes...

Making cookies

Not that we needed an excuse to make cookies, but Christopher's friends, Kai and Eli, were coming over for dinner and we needed a yummy dessert for all the boys.  Chocolate chip and M&M cookies!
