Such a big boy!
Happy Birthday to you!
You have really grown in leaps and bounds this year.
You are now in your second year of pre-school and you love it! You have not had anymore issues when getting dropped off at school like you did last year. You are so excited to be a big boy in class and helping your classmates, I think that may be what has helped.
You are a crazy talker now. Full sentences. All. The. Time. There are many things that you don't pronounce right that I really hope you'll grow out of soon. You say your C's and K's as T's, and your G's as D's. You also tend to not say your P's. Like when you say "police," it comes out "ohweese," and other words I can't think of no. But we know you can hear and say the letter P because you say "potty," "purple" and other things correctly. There are also others, but those come and go, like mixing up your N's and M's. It gets pretty frustrating for you and us sometimes when you are trying to tell us something, but it takes us a little bit to figure out what you are trying to say because you're not saying your words with the right letter sound. I'm sure it will come with time and age. Hopefully.
You are having so much fun with Chase now that he's mobile an can run around with you. You two are definitely boys and love to rough house and tackle each other. You have very active times when you are ripping apart the couch, jumping on the cushions, tearing each other's heads off (all in fun) to very sweet times when you will "read" a book to Chase and watch tablets together. You are such a sweet big brother.
You have definitely developed an attitude and we are working on helping you know how to speak nicely to us (especially Mommy) and asking for things and not demanding. We're pretty sure it has been going to school that has started this. Which is ok! I know it is normal for you to want a little freedom after being so structured at school and it comes out as aggression. You just need to learn what aggression is ok, and what is not.
