CARS!!!!!
Yes, that is Theo's newest obsession... cars. Disney cars, cars in magazines, cars on TV, cars in parking lots, riding in cars, you name it, he loves it! It's really the first thing he's really into, so it's definitely fun. He's also obsessed with his My First Words book - so much so that Andy and I have taken to hiding it in the couch when WE JUST CAN'T LOOK AT IT ANYMORE!!!
November was a busy month, more so for the parents than the child. Andy is busy with his doctoral work, while I finished up one of my last master's classes. We survived our first round of parent/teacher conferences and enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving with Andy's family. The house is decorated and ready for the holidays, and I'm pleased to report that Theo has taken a liking to all the Santas around the house. I'm not sure how he will fare when we hit the mall to actually see Santa, (I predict tears and lots of no, no, no) but so far he's all about the big, jolly guy.
In other Theo news, he now enjoys climbing up onto the family room table, (see video below) pulling the cats' tails, watching the Disney vacation planning video, using silverware, and eating everything in sight. Honestly, this is not the typical kid who only eats mac n' cheese, he will try anything and generally likes it. His bigger concerns are making sure he's eating the exact same things as any and all adults around him, and this includes condiments. Now, this may sound like a strange statement, but for those of you who know Andy well enough and are aware of his love affair with ketchup and barbeque sauce, it makes perfect sense.
We are looking forward to a wonderful holiday season and a fun-filled Christmas with the little man. As long as the cats and dog don't knock over the tree, we should be all set!
As usual, here's a link to our latest pics:
