Oh, what to say about this boy. He is boy through and through. Sometimes he makes me want to pull out my hair in frustration. The next minute I can't stop laughing at him. This is what he's been up to lately:
-He's still obsessed with trucks and cars, but lately he's started to love tractors. We live in Spanish Fork, at the very southern end of the construction in Utah County so anytime we go anywhere on the freeway we pass dozens of tractors. He's the only person I know of that enjoys that drive!
-He calls Justin "Daddi-o." Even in the middle of the night and he's crying out him. And lately, Molly is "Molly-o" and Brynn is "Brynni-o."
-He's got a great Cookie Monster impersonation.
-Getting him to eat has become somewhat of a pain. He wants to be fed and he wants you to do a truck/tractor/Mater/Lightning McQueen noise as you're feeding him. Lately, though I can get him to do it to himself. That's cute. And it's cute when he tries to feed Brynn and he does the same thing and Brynn grins from ear to ear at him.
-He loves shoes. As soon as he is dressed he wants shoes. He also likes to walk around in Justin's shoes, my shoes, and Molly's shoes. He calls everyone else's shoes flip flops.
-He talks non-stop. He knows so many words now and uses them constantly. And he only has one volume: LOUD. At church he's loud, in the library he's loud, when Brynn's sleeping he's loud...
-He has sort of starting to train himself to use the toilet. A few weeks ago, with no promptings, he sat on the toilet and pooped. When we're home, he usually poops in the toilet. I'm not pushing anything, just letting what happens happen.
-He likes to blow on Brynn's belly.
-If one little things falls or spills, he has to make sure the rest of it goes as well. For example: he has a little bowl of dry cereal or crackers. One cracker spills. Instead of picking it up and putting it back in the bowl, he just dumps the rest of the bowl out. This is frustrating.
-He has two jobs: putting the dirty clothes in the hamper and take out the diapers. He usually tells me "no" when I ask him to do something but eventually he gets to it.
-He's starting to really like books. He will actually sit through a whole book that is only pictures (no flaps, truck noises, etc).
-He is becoming Mr. Independent. Everything is "I try!" He's a pro at buckling his seat belt and he loves to help in the kitchen.
-He chases Molly and her friends around, being the bad guy I guess. He makes a noise that sounds like "psht psht psht psht" while he's chasing.
-Hates getting his teeth brushed.
-He's a bit camera shy. He's so cute and has a great smile but as soon as the camera comes out, he freezes up. He glares at the camera. The good pictures are when we catch him by surprise.
I'm sure there is more, but I can't seem to think of anything else. So a picture will have to do...

Him and Evan sound like 2 peas in a pod. Evan has started to poop in the toilet too, unprompted. We too have not pushed anything...mostly cause I HATED potty training Annabelle. lol. So I am letting him lead the way. He hates getting hus teeth brushed and is LOUD. I think th ebest one was how he says Daddi-o even when he cries for Justin in the night. Now thst is just cute/hilarious!
Sounds like things are going to be VERY different from what I am used to with a little boy around our house. I am excited though---Stockton sure is a cute boy!
What a darling little man. We love everything about him!
What a stud. I loved reading about him, its so fun to hear!
