All about Armour

Well, Armour has an ever growing personality (and vocabulary), and I just thought I would share a few little things about him now at 19 months.

1-He LOVES the movie Curious George! LOVES it. Anytime I want him to sit quietly for 97 minutes, I just have to turn it on-the other kids are actually getting sick of it he watches it so much! He will come up to us and loudly yell "joje" to let us know he wants to watch-seriously you have to hear how he says it-it's adorable.

2-He has figured out some of the speed dials on my phone, and pretty much every day calls my mom and says "Hi xiaxia, hi xiaxia!!" Over and over Until I tell him to say "Love you bu bye." He will not say Love you, when I try to get him to say "love", he always says "bubye dada, see ya!" I guess he associated "I love you" with dad leaving for work. It's funny...Often he calls her when I am totally unaware...he also calls my sister on occasion...

3-He loves to flush the toilet. If anyone leaves any bathroom door open in this house, we are in for it! Recently he flushed something down the toilet-we're still not sure what-and it took Wes & me like almost an hour to plunge the toilet.

4-He is not shy about letting you know if he doesn't want something. If he doesn't want to eat his food, he emphatically states "NO MEAT", if he doesn't want to give you a hug, "NO HUG"...you get the picture.

5-He is hilarious when he gives kisses. He somehow has determined that he thinks raspberries are kisses. It is kinda gross to get spit on each and every time he want to give kisses-but he is just trying to be loving...

6- Armour's favorite foods are meats and sweets. Getting him to eat anything else is really tough!! (He is getting batter at this recently thank goodness!!)

7-Just yesterday while Wes was watching him I am told that he decided he was wet and took his pants and diaper off and started running around the house. Maybe he needs to use the potty...

8- He is extremely loving! Solace just told me that her favorite thing about him is that when she gets hurt, he gives her big hugs, and that he loves to sit on her lap and snuggle. These are both very true statements-he loves to sit on both his siblings laps which is slightly funny as they are not that much bigger then he is.

9-He will try to squeeze his little body into anything-as I type this, he is trying to fit into a popcorn bowl.

10-He and Ender love to wrestle. Ender says it's one of his favorite things.

Basically, we have a happy, active, fun & funny littlest brother here that we all love and adore! We are excited to see what a great big brother he will be! He rocks!!!
