Happy 3rd Birthday, Skyler!



What I love about this boy:

1. I love how Skyler likes to look out the window and watch the garbage truck come. It's pretty much an obsession. Whenever we hear the truck coming, we run for the window!

2. I love that Skyler likes to help me throw the laundry down the laundry chute...that is, as long as someone (like me) is in the laundry room screaming, "Don't throw that laundry on my head."

3. I love that Skyler loves going to church (nursery). Even when it's not Sunday, he'll ask to put on his church clothes. Perhaps just in case. (Next January is going to be terrible!!)

4. I love that Skyler loves his baths and his pajamas and his bear and his blanket.

5. I LOVE when Skyler tells me in a soft, sweet voice that I'm his little son. (I think he thinks I'm saying SUN when I call him my son).

6. I love that Skyler loves his missionary little people, his missionary badge, and singing "I hope they call me on a mission."

7. I love that Skyler has his favorite songs that he wants to sing every night: The fishy song, and the temple song. And sometimes the sunshine song and the missionary song.

8. I love Skyler's adorable laugh, and how much he loves Eliza.

9. I love when Skyler tells me I'm the BEST mom ever. (Usually just after he calls me the badest mom ever and is trying to avoid getting into trouble. That I don't love, but I do think it's funny).

10. I love how Skyler likes to pick out his own clothes. Each night he'll go through his closet and choose an outfit and leave it on the floor. What 2- or 3-year-old does this, especially boys?

I love how if you say, "Your a stinker, Skyler," he says, "NO I'm Skyler!" -Emily Jean
