neal

i can't believe how quickly neal is growing up.  we think he is the darndest cutest little boy ever!  he definitely has entered the "terrible 2's."  the other kids weren't this bad at 2.  he has full on tantrums (flat on the ground, kicking and screaming).  ryan always asks andi and cohen, "did mommy give neal some wild pills today?"  he is such a wild little boy, but we don't know what we would do without him!

he still loves andi and cohen like crazy.  every morning (he is always the first one up) he has to give andi and cohen loves (hugs).  when they wake up he says, "give andi wuvs" or "give cohen wuvs."  when they leave for school and get home from school he has to give them loves.  before he goes to bed he has to give loves again!  it makes me so happy seeing them hug each other.

he is always asking, "what happened mommy?"  whatever we are talking about, reading or watching, he has to know what's going on.  

he likes to have all the attention.  he is usually running around the house saying, "wook daddy" "wook mommy" "wook kafryn (my sister kathryn)" or anyone that's around.  he will get really mad if you don't watch.

he is very independent.  he wants to do everything by himself.  he always says, "no mommy, i do it!"  i have never had such an independent child.  it is driving me crazy!

he loves to read books, blow bubbles and play with play dough.

he loves to sing.  i couldn't post the videos on here so i posted them on face book.  he likes to sit at the piano and just sing.

he lets you know when you have made him mad.  he will fold his little arms, put his head down and pouts his little face.  then he will say, "you make me mad mommy"

he loves "minky mouse"

if he can't find me he starts yelling, "mommy where are you?"

i know i am forgetting stuff, so as i remember i will add to it.  he is such a fun little boy and we all love him so much!
