The Boy Behind the Name...

Maddy has been able to write his name (without help or looking at an example) for some time now (probably a couple months) and I keep forgetting to post about it. He sometimes writes his d's like b's and sometimes the a looks like a b or d but I think he is doing a great job. He loves learning all his letters and is constantly asking me what letter things start with and gets excited to pick something out that starts with the letter of the week for show-n-tell. This was yesterday...

His preschool class made a cute little cookbook for the parents for Christmas. It is so adorable! I loved reading all the different "recipe's" for all the kids. Maddy loves it and asks me to read it to him almost every day. He giggles at what the other kids said. Here is his "recipe"...

"Noodle Soup" is Top Ramen. He absolutely loves it and insists on having it almost every day for lunch. I know, it's not the most healthy thing for him but he is actually a pretty healthy eater overall so I let him. It's actually quite the process to make it... everything has to be done a certain way-his way.

He is also quite the "hoarder." He seriously carries around so much stuff with him all day long. I was waiting for a video to upload on the computer and came out to check on the kids and this is what I found.

As you may already know he also LOVES the cartoon "Ben 10." Every time an episode comes on he shouts out all the "alien's" names as they appear on the TV. I couldn't help recording him yesterday so I can remember this phase in his life later...
