The Little Guy at Three Years

Can anyone believe this child of ours is already three years old?! Yeah we can't either. This Little Guy brings so much joy in our lives. He's so fun to be around and says the funniest things all the time. Not to mention he is the best big brother ever!
AND SO CUTE!!!!
We went to see Dr. McBride on the 30th for his three year check (no shots this time) here are his stats

HEIGHT: 35" 4%
WEIGHT: 26 lbs 1%
HE CAN: Use 3-5 word sentences, dress myself, balance on one foot, count to at least 3, pedal a tricycle, play with other kids, know 3 colors, copy a circle and X, build a block tower, walk stairs with alternating feet, knows name, age and gender. ask why or what
PASSPORT: PASSED

So yep... still a little guy. He is actually doing well development wise and following a growing trend even if it is the last line on the chart. 
So here are some fun tidbits from our super cute Little Guy:

He is super witty and sassy (seriously I don't know where it even comes from) some of out most recent sass fests include

LG: (as we are pulling up to Provo Town Center) Mom, are we going to the merry-go-round?
Me: (pretended I didn't hear him and said something to Spencer)
LG: (as we are parking) Mom! Are we going to the merry-go-round?
Me: You want to go on the merry-go-round?
LG: Yes
Me: (I sit quietly because I don't want to make him an empty promise)
LG: MOM! are you saying yes or no?!

Tio Ariel: Say "I was born annoying". Go say that to your mom. Say "Mom, I was born annoying"
LG: (runs in the kitchen) Mom, Tio Ariel was born annoying!

LG:(Playing with Spencer) Do not cross this line Daddy Mark Keele!

Me: (as I'm changing a particularly gross poopy diaper) My goodness, you are a poopy monster today
LG: No Mom, I'm not a poopy monster I'm a poopy guy!

See... so sassy

He's Daddy is everything to him. The first thing he does when he wakes up is ask if Daddy is sleeping and then say that he wants to play "puzzle pieces" with him when he wakes up. 

He's super smart! Seriously he know so many things. He knows the alphabet and can recognize all the letters. He can count to 20 and keep going if someone lets him know the next set of tens. Otherwise he'll continue to count "twenty-eleven, twenty-twelve, twenty-thirteen" If you just tell him it's thirty he can figure it out and counts all the way up to the sixty like that.

He is a pretty picky eater. If likes one thing one day it does not mean that he will like it the next day. The only constant thing "sort of" it's pasta. He does really like noodles.

Refuses to nap. It's a big thorn in our side

Loves Primary. We were worried about the transition from nursery but he's been great. I actually threaten him during Sacrament Meeting that if he's not good we'll go home and he won't get to go to Primary.


We love our Little Guy so freaking much!!!!!

PS thank you to Tio Adam for the pictures
