A little bit from mommy & daddy:  You are so lively and energetic, and you have the biggest heart, and the most contagious smile! You notice everything around you and are very curious about all that you see. You are very loving and cuddly, and you like to give big hugs and raspberry kisses! And, you also like to wrestle and roughhouse, which is why we call you our little tumbleweed!
What we enjoy doing together as a family:  We love to take hikes together after dinner, we love to play trains together at your train table, we love to play tractors and trucks in your sandbox, we love to dance and be silly and have fun, and we love to play ball in all sorts of different ways!

All of our love to you always and forever,
Mommy & Daddy

Using Your Imagination

Dear Buggy-Bear, Today, I cleaned out the kitchen pantry and encouraged you to play with cans and boxes! You played for hours making different structures and became very creative, building towers and race tracks!


Mommy asked, "Nathaniel, what are you going to build with these cans and boxes?"

Nathaniel said, "I'm going to make a road here. And vroom! Up high!


Later on in the day Mommy asked again, "What are you going to build now?"

Nathaniel replied, "I'm going to build an ocean hole, like in the beach!  I'm going to build a BIG hole!"


You are so imaginative! I took lots of videos of you playing, but you weren't wearing any clothes, and I didn't want to interrupt your creativity to put them on. But you played all day with your little toy cars, and kept on building bigger and better "race tracks" for them!  I will be sure to post more pictures as soon as I have a chance to capture them from the videos. 

All of our love to you always and forever,
Mommy & Daddy
