"Big Boy"

Drew keeps reminding me that he is a "big boy". He says it all day long...mostly when trying to lift heavy objects. Sometimes he says it when he wants to do something on his own (like climb up the slide when he knows he is not supposed to.)

He has been having semi-conversations with me lately. We will pass the horse farm on our street and he asks where the horse is: "nay?....go? (with arms in a shrug)....barn!" Interpretation: "Mommy, where are the horses? They must be inside the barn!

He has become accustomed to going through the Dunkin Donuts drive thru for Mom's iced coffee and 3 munchkins for himself. Whenever we go near DD he asks for "nonuts". The drive thru is right next to the commuter rail train and we have often seen it go by while waiting in line. So the other day I got :

"Choo-choo?....go?......oooh" ie: Aaaw, where did that train go?

I responded that it went to Boston....

"Bo-ton?"

"Yes, it brought all of the people to work"

"People?" he asks while holding up one of his Fisher Price Little People.....

"Yes honey, exactly"

So my "big boy" is truly getting big - here are some photos to prove it:

Drew found the Bumbo in the basement and now loves to tote it around and sit in it. He usually gets stuck in it, so he has to roll himself out.

I don't remember what this face was in response to...probably because everytime I pull out the camera he wants to see the "BABY" inside of it.
