Our little Maka Doodle turned 3 on August 14. He's the craziest "free" year old ever. There is so much personality bursting from every cell of this little body. He drives me crazy and yet I could just love him to bits. Here are some things about little Mak Attack:
-He gives the best hugs ever
-He loves to grab my face and kiss my lips even though I remind him my lips are for daddy
-He loves anything sweet
-He fights nap time and opts for quiet time almost daily which usually results in him falling asleep right when he would normally be waking up from nap.
-He is becoming more tender and loving
-He's easier to reason with (this one gets me excited since it results in far less tantrums from both mommy and Makai.)
-He does crazy things like stick flowers in his ears, gurgle his drinks at every meal, runs everywhere he goes, sleeps with his bum in the air, says "Goodnight" and tips back first into the pool, drinks green smoothies like it's ice cream.
-He makes up his own versions of games (for example, while playing leap frog, when it was his turn, instead of jumping over me he simply belly flopped on my back and said, "Frog died". Awesome.
-He knows he cute and tells us often.
-He is potty training himself when I let him. We've just been in the middle of a move, so I haven't been ready to focus on it.
-He thinks Ezra is the best buddy ever and he laughs at anything he does.
-He gives Deklan hugs and kisses and likes to remind him not to touch the poop when we're doing diaper changes.
-He says something funny on a daily basis (Recently while he was saying a prayer he ended with, "And, umm.. Good-bye."
-He sings the "Maka Doodle" song and won't let anyone else sing along (aka Yankee Doodle)
-He doesn't know how to keep the water in the bathtub
-His feet are always dirty
-He make an sh sound with most words that start with an s for example, "shwimming"
-He tells me he's tired of things like, "I'm getting tired of going to bed."
-He always likes to scold us and say, "Well, we'll see about that."
We love our Kai Guy and all the craziness he adds to our days and our family. Happy Birthday little love.
(We are in Texas finally and we actually have internet!!! So after 8 months of being behind, I plan to catch up when I get the chance :) Stay tuned.)
