Drake loves the snow...well he just loves to be outside! BJ bought Drake an innertube to sled in the snow with. We bundle him all up and push him down small hills while he holds onto the handles of the innertube. He barely cracks a smile b/c he is having so much fun that he doesn't have time to smile. We call this face his "tricycle face" b/c whenever he goes to Grandma and Grandpa's house and gets pushed on their tricycle he gets a straight face and won't even smile but we know that he really is having the time of his life. We found the perfect "sledding hill" right in front of our house. The sidewalks had snow that was frozen over which made for a perfect slide. The snow was high enough on each side of the sidewalk that it created a perfect little path for Drake to slide down.
Drake is talking a little bit more now. He can say mom, dad, car, go, ball, and can almost say snack, bath, and spoon. After he says a word we get excited and say "good job Drake" and he celebrates by clapping his hands. I know I am biased...but he is so smart! He understands what I am saying. When we say it is time to put his pajamas on he goes in his room and gets his pajamas from his shelf. It is so cute to watch him learn and grow. He learns more and more each day. He is like a little sponge and likes to copy whatever BJ and I do.
