Isaiah @ 3.5 Years

Well, Isaiah is 3 1/2 now. I'm really not sure what's changed since he turned 3, so I will probably just blather on for a bit about how amazing he is.

Isaiah has been fully potty trained, including naps and at night, for over a year now. I've taken it for granted and forget how great that is until I see other kids that are barely younger than him (or even the same age) still in diapers. I know every kid does things on their own schedule, but it still makes me proud of my big guy.

The boy's vocabulary is amazing. He uses words we didn't know he KNEW....and uses them correctly! He's even started asking us what words mean when he doesn't understand them. The other day he was watching Transformers and they used a word he didn't know (of course, I can't remember what it was now) and I had to try to explain it to him. Jeremy got a kick out of that. I have a good vocabulary, but I don't know how to explain some words on a level I think Isaiah will understand. Maybe I try to dumb some things down too much? He also says the CRAZIEST things sometimes.

Isaiah can write his first and last name. First name completely without help, last name we still have to help him spell sometimes because he likes to leave out the 'c'. He still doesn't know all his letters, but we will probably work on that while he's home full time for a few weeks. Unless Jeremy and I actually find jobs. I'm just assuming we will be home at this point.

He had his last day at his old daycare yesterday. All his friends made him cards, which was really sweet. He doesn't seem too upset about it....in fact, he keeps asking about when he's going to start at his new school. Sometime this week I'm going to have to drop that paperwork off up there and will probably bring him with me so maybe we can see some of it.

Napping is becoming a fight. He still NEEDS one, but can lay in bed for an hour or more and not fall asleep. Those are bad nights. He usually ends up going to be early without getting to watch tv because he's just such a fussy mess. 

He LOVES his brother! And is just a super, amazing, beautiful, fantastic little boy!
