He sucks his thumb, but SHOULD have given it up for his third birthday. Somehow, he has re-negotiated and decided that he can continue to suck it until Sydney's birthday, since Sydney's birthday is also IN MAY. (Little stinker.) The OTC product we bought at Target didn't phase him one single bit. He proudly woke on his birthday, announcing "My thumb doesn't taste acky. It's still good... SEE!" (inserting thumb into mouth.) The dentist-approved stuff is NASTY!!! (Silas is now trying to sleep with gloves or socks on his hands at night.)
Silas is potty trained! He has been dry in the night for many, many, many months!!!! *Every once in a while, he will wake with a wet bed, but almost never. He's SERIOUSLY pretty awesome!
Silas wears Sesame Street big boy pants - unless his drawer is empty - and then, he will GLADLY wear some of Sydney's Thomas the Train big boy pants.
Silas likes to pick out his own clothes. He's starting to select SHORTS to wear. He gets mad at short sleeved shirts because he likes the sleeve to go to his wrist. His FAVORITE SHIRT is his green HELER SHIRT, which is too small for him, but has YET to be retired.
Silas still LOVES his monkey!
Silas puts himself to bed when he is tired or not feeling well.
Silas seems to be good at math. He often can look at something and announce "There are six." without having to count "one... two... three... four... five... six!"
Silas loves to READ the family rules sign at the top of our stairway.
The last RULE says SMILE, but Silas announces "S - M - one - L - Y"
He announces that it does NOT spell SILAS because Silas has two S's in it.
"I love you to the moon AND SUN and BACK!"
Wakes us in the night, proclaiming "Mommy? I love you!"
LOVES when his over-easy fried egg POOPS on his plate. He enjoys a runny yolk.
LOVES to start his day with a cup of juice.
Proclaims that the Hy-Vee deli is his favorite restaurant to eat at. (Thanks, Grandpa Lowell!)
