Shows how smart he is. <br /><br />I am sure the food issues will resolve as he gets older. He is just stubborn and 1st children seem to be more picky from what I’ve read? I have a funny thing I need to send you on that…<br /><br />It is so sweet how nurturing he is with Will amd how he will say “it’s okay, Mommy is coming” - be still my heart!

He’s quite the little man and so much fun to watch him grow and learn so quickly! You’ll have to be on your toes to keep up with him, that’s for sure.Marlyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14759100075048865240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-14400965736832680682021-09-13T16:43:07.735-05:002021-09-13T16:43:07.735-05:00Love that you are raising a reader, but sorry abou...Love that you are raising a reader, but sorry about the threenager showing up, too. The three's are definitely harder - I have no idea how the terrible twos became such a thing but in my experience, EVERY parent I have ever talked to has had more challenges when their kids turn 3. (The problem is that you think you're home free after the twos, and... no! It gets worse! That's just hard.) <br /><br />I hope the swimming lessons improve, and that you can get to the park a ton before winter comes! <br />Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12154065085158706570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-34904329249101161232021-09-10T16:15:29.765-05:002021-09-10T16:15:29.765-05:00Love to hear how Paul is doing.

It looks familiar.<br /><br />So sorry about the "threenager" behavior... haha. Don't they usually talk about the "terrible twos"?

But he seems like he has such sweet moments in between his big feelings - love that he's such a good big brother and has such a great imagination. And hooray for raising a reader! How fun!Stephanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01664500645286563334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-20692786545522884252021-09-03T20:42:16.797-05:002021-09-03T20:42:16.797-05:00What a great overview of Paul's 3.5 years.

I'm thinking Carson was that age when he got his big boy bed but he's still a night wanderer and usually ends up (with his brother) in his parents' bed. This is getting old! I'm so glad he loves to read and is enjoying all the games and being a good big brother. What a treat to read this.Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-24474894372831433112021-09-03T09:19:32.615-05:002021-09-03T09:19:32.615-05:00What a wonderful recap post!!

Gosh, makes me wish I had been doing recaps like this when my boys were young!! :( I giggled at the bumbo picture...Ethan totally did that too. He sat in it for ages. We actually used that for the LONGEST time to have him sit in on the counter while Ivan would cut his hair, even until I think he was like 5 or older!! Ethan is the same way, even now. He just turned 13 and some of his shorts are like size 9-10!!! It's crazy. He is just so slender and we have always had the same issue with the waist size. He is growing...but slowly.... <br /><br />It makes me nostalgic to read about your two boys close in age like that. It's like my life, but 9-10 years ago! :) We did SO MANY parks, the swimming lessons, the books... so fun. I enjoy reliving some of those times vicariously through your blog. :)<br /><br />We transitioned to big boy bed right around age 3 too. Definitely feels like a milestone! It's fun though. We are now at the point that we really need to probably do some room makeovers to more "teen"/ pre-teen rooms, but haven't done much yet. We did just order a new bedroom set for Ethan, which is actually sitting in our garage in the boxes! We are trying to sell his old stuff on Craigslist right now (the dressers and his old headboard). They probably could have lasted all the way through, since they aren't particularly "babyish" looking but we wanted a full matching set and a headboard with a built in bookshelf- and we wanted to get him a desk.
