fall

though summer is my favorite season, fall and spring come in at a close second. i really love fall, it's just that winter comes after and that i am not so fond of....
fall makes me think of all the things i love. having a baby makes many of those things even better. now that drew is almost 2, he's so fun and entertaining. here are some of the things he says and does that i absolutely love:

• hand mommy, hand. -- when he wants to hold hands.
  
• hold you! --when he wants to be held or picked up.
  
• what's that? --imagine that 500 times a day. :)
  
• wiz and wolly -- that would be liz and molly. i think liz is one of his favorite people.
  
• cole and map -- nicole and matt, two of his other favorite people
  
• shew, messy! -- after he threw up in his car seat on the way to school this week....and i had bus duty.
  
• cancake -- pancake: he ate two at cracker barrel this morning!
  
• truck
  
• cossee -- coffee
  
• whoa, baby!
  
• oops daisy
  
• his dancing -- he will only dance to single ladies. don't even think about trying a different song.
  
• have it
  
• kink-kuo -- thank you
  
• peese -- please

there are so many more, i can't list them all.

some of the ones i'm not too wild about, but are still cute....sometimes:

• why? -- imagine this one with his hands turned out to the sides....oh, boy.
  
• fork -- he yelled that at cracker barrel this morning and it did NOT sound like fork. it sounded like the mother of all words.....
  
• the whiny "mommy" -- it doesn't bother me at first, but after 4,000 times in an hour, it can start to wear you down. i still love that he can say it, no matter how many times, i have to think about that instead of getting irritated. :)
  
• dammit -- and old standby
  
• hush!


• daddy worrrrrk

he has new boots for the fall and he's absolutely crazy about them. he's into all things boy including dirt bikes, motorcycles, tractors and big trucks. here's a picture of drew and daddy watching tractor trailer rigs drag racing....
