He's a big kid now!

On Sunday we took William into nursery. There is only like 5 kids in nursery, so they said that as long as we come with William, he can come. I went to the first part where they just play with toys and William was aggressive! All the other kids were kind of nervous standing by their moms, but not William. He ran over to the toys and started dumping buckets and pushing the lawnmower and playing like crazy. He didn't' want the other kids to play with any of "his" toys either. Oh boy, where did this little monster come from :) He came over to me really worried and pulled my finger over to the toys and pointed to a stuffed cat that looked pretty real. I think he thought it was real, but when I showed him it wasn't real, he picked it up and threw it across the room. He makes me laugh. I then went to relief society and mike stayed with him for the second half. Mike said that William sat up to the table for snack time and drank out of his little cup by himself and ate some of the snacks and watched while they sang a song and then he colored a picture that is now proudly hanging on our fridge. When did my baby grow up? AHH! Yesterday I was letting him eat some rice cakes and was in the kitchen. He came and got me and pulled me into the bedroom and around the corner he showed me that he had dumped the whole bag onto the ground. He ran over to the pile and pointed at it and said "Uh-oh." We went down and I got the real vacuum and he ran and got his fake vacuum and we took them upstairs and together we vacuumed it up. He is quite the little cleaner. He also knows how to clean the mirror with windex and his latest discovery is the mixer. He is now obsessed with putting the beaters in the mixer and trying to plug it in. We love the little guy but are shocked at how fast he is becoming an adult...or maybe just a toddler!

Colds, Cheetos, and Championships

We have been pretty sick with colds, but are feeling much better now. We are in the full swing of March Madness and we are feeling the Madness! Last night we were watching a game where Mike and I had chosen different teams to win. My team ended up winning and he said, "Congrats on the win," and I said, "I am sorry that your team didn't win." It was a pretty funny moment because we were trying to be all polite, but inside we were all competive. Go Memphis! (yeah, they almost lost yesterday and I have them as my champion!)

Here is William getting a drink on his own. He doesn't need our help. He just climbs up on the counter and turns on the water and leans over and drinks from the faucet.

Mid-day cheeto snack.

Here he is watching baby einstein. Mmmm...cheeto mouth.

He is actually really sick in this bathtub picture. You can tell if you look at the black under his eyes.

Drinking from a shot glass that later accidently went down the garbage disposal and was shred into many glass pieces. That's what you get for having your bathtub in the sink (we only have a shower.)

Hair cutting mishap

I accidentally cut william's hair really short. He is now bald. But I think he is still cute. Here are some pics of his recent activities.
He came down yesterday with his socks on his hands. What a funny kid.

We have been slowly taking the binky away. He found a substitute binky...the lid to the bottle.

Showing off his accomplishment. Sock hand man.

Short hair.

Here he is with his long hair and showing off his mad climbing skills

Cooking and Dress Up

Mike is getting a little worried that William is following too much in my footsteps. His favorite thing is to help me cook. He can basically make mac-n-cheese by himself. He also likes to put on my clothes. Here he is with my swimsuit cover-up on as a little dress and quite proud of himself. I think he is cute! Mike on the other hand...ha ha!

Helping me make cookies

Worried that we are not getting the cookies out on time.

Yay for daddy's shoes
