1. He uses words like 'suddenly' and 'often'.
2. Lately, he's been insisting that during our nightly football games we say, 'Christmas Hut!' instead of the usual, 'Hut!'
3. He picks on his mother. Like the other day when he sneaked up behind her while she was on the step ladder vacuuming the ceiling fan blades, turned the vacuum off and ran away.
4. He gets really mad when I call him 'Princess Walt' and insists that I then call him 'Car Walt.'
5. Today, he set up his nativity scene as a football game and announced that the Bulldogs were playing the Cowboys.
6. He calls me out when I tease him.
7. This past weekend, he spelled the word 'cold' on the kitchen floor with refrigerator magnet letters after reading it on the faucet handle in the bathroom. Ginger and I both thought the other had something to do with it.
8. He frequently breaks out in Christmas carols despite the fact that he only knows about every third word.
9. When cleaning up the football game/nativity scene before bedtime, he knew exactly where the Baby Jesus had last landed hours before.
10. More often than not, he tells me he loves me as I leave his room at night.
that's a hilarious and sweet list. :)
ReplyDeleteIs there any more wonderful age than "almost 4"...unless it is "4"?! Now that's the kind of "Top Ten List" I love!
ReplyDeleteso sweet.
ReplyDeletei can concur with the carol singing. it takes a long time to get through "rudolph" over at the Lareau house.
The boy is the best! We still laugh out loud thinking about his comment after walking around Graceland listening for hours listening to (mr) Elvis, at lunch he looked at us and said: "this guy is a pretty good singer".
ReplyDeleteThanks Walt's daddy for sharing this with us
11. He shows replays of the great moments in his pretend car races. In slow motion and everything.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm a little curious about how Walt went about dividing his nativity scene into teams. Regardless, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say "Team Baby Jesus" won the Frankensense Bowl.
