Santa, signing and sleeping

My mom and I took Kevin to NRH2O this weekend for their annual Christmas in the Park festivities. He was so good and we had so much fun. Kevin got his picture taken with Santa...which he wasn't too happy about but cute none-the-less.

Kevin is also mastering his sign language skills like crazy! He's seriously able to communicate with us all the time now. We know everything - when he's hungry, thirsty or sleepy. He is now nodding or shaking his head when answering us. I think that's the cutest thing ever. He wants to walk everywhere by himself...where only 2 months ago he wanted to be carried everywhere even though he could walk. He swings his little arms and claps his hands like he's big stuff. He's doing so good in school and has passed his separation anxiety stage. I don't usually even get a wave good-bye anymore!

He's also picked up on how great naps are. My mom says he's definitely my child! Every chance he gets at home on the weekends, he's wanting to take a nap - morning or afternoon. Saturday he took a 3 1/2 hr nap - that's my boy : )

We're definitely loving this toddler stage and all the excitement it is bringing us. He's just a fun little boy with a big personality. It doesn't get much better than this.
