Toddler Talents

My children have a variety of talents and gifts...

Honestly... how many people could sleep in a position like this? Head just hanging in the air? Amazing.

Andrew makes his talents known in the kitchen. This is actually the SECOND bag he has taken a bite out of. Time to get some more Tupperware.

Cameron decided to "help" me with my knitting after I was summoned upstairs by little Prince Andrew.

Glad I was only on the third row.

Note to self: knit only when the kids are sleeping.


And now William...

William has been VERY into drawing lately. I was astonished as these random non-distinguishable scribbles/blobs evolved into actual faces, pumpkins and ghosts. Out of the blue last week he said "I'm going to draw a 'W'"... and he did. And an 'A'. And a 'C' (for his brothers).

Yesterday William asked for a pen and paper and said "I'm going to write my name."


And....


He did.

Actual picture and translation for all 'yall with trouble seeing the pink-on-pink.

And again-- minus one "i", but still more distinguishable.

*Readers, fear not. I won't endlessly post my kids' pictures that primarily his parents think are awesome and everyone else thinks are junk... just let a proud momma beam for a minute here. :) I know every kid reaches this point, and many kids at ages far younger than my big boy. But it's just a milestone that blows me away! He's growing up so fast.

Here is another drawing that made my jaw drop. He first drew the picture, then colored it in, and then told me about it. Great job, buddy!

My proud artist.

Love these little monsters. I even love that Cameron loves my helping me knit with my "setting noodles" (not sure why he can't quite manage to say 'knitting needles' haha!). Andrew eating the flour--- I love that a little less. But I still love that baby.
