Right now at this stage of four AJ thinks he is a little man! He loves to tickle, joke around to make people he loves smile. He can be a real ham. He does have a mean streak and can be sneaky and bossy (his way is the only way). His other personality has become very polite saying yes ma'm, yes sir, please, thank you and may I. He is scared of being places by himself such as upstairs. He has begun to come in our room at night and sleep with us. He still loves Jeeps, trains (and knows the names of every Thomas train figure), and right now he is very into building towers and houses with blocks, Legos and Lincoln Logs. He loves to tell me and Kendyll that we are beautiful, and his dad that he is handsome. He loves to tell everyone he loves that he loves them multiple times a day. He craves words of affirmation. He is developing some friends and told me that Logan and Ethan are his best friends. He loves school and learning new things. He especially gets very excited when he learns a new word to read. He is into playing Leapster, watching Toy Story and the VeggieTales. He loves his Chunky Monkey and we have to kiss it goodnight as well as him. My most favorite lines out of his mouth are "mom don't say right now, say please," "Are you happy?" "Mom are you OK or fine, pick one!" "Mom the sun is out, Jesus' light came out again today." He will ask a question and then say "yes or no mom yes or no?" And one I always want to remember - the other night he didn't feel good and we didn't know at the time but he was on his way to throwing up soon. He came in our room and said that his tummy didn't feel well and he needed a band-aid to make it feel well! AWE! How sweet! Jeremy got up and put a band-aid on his belly. Unfortunetly it didn't work.
Miss Kendyll, what a little DIVA! At sixteen months she is quite the daddy's girl! She has Jeremy wrapped around her finger and right behind is Bompa and Pappa. She can do no wrong in their eyes. Kendyll loves balloons, balls, blocks, dancing to music, and her pink piggy bank. She has recently developed a love for books (thanks to AJ). She will pick out a book at night, we will read in the rocking chair, she will put the book away and get another book to take to bed with her. She goes to her crib and says "UP" then sits in her crib and talks to herself and the book until she falls asleep. She wakes up in the morning and can't go anywhere without her "B" blanket. She carries it around like Linus on Charlie Brown. Her hair is beginning to thinken up. Although most the time she looks like she has been struck by lightning since it sticks up on the top of her head. She loves to be outside and will sit in AJ's Jeep and just take in the sun. She is very beautiful. She loves, loves, loves Andrew. She will stop whatever she is doing and run to the television when she hears the Backyardigan's theme song. Her favorite place to be is inside of the pantry and she always has to be carrying around a snack - not eating it, just carrying it unopened. When she doesn't get her way she knows how to turn on the tears, when tears do not work it goes to dropping on the floor. If you ask her if it is bedtime she will stop crying instantly and start talking and pleading her case in babble. She has no problem ignoring you if you are asking her not to do something. She acts like if she can't see you then you can't see her. She is a true blessing.
