If I had to pick one word to describe Ryan at this age, it would be Unfiltered.
He just says what he thinks and expresses how he feels in the moment with an intensity comparable to a volcano. Sometimes I find his giant, lovable personality irresistible. Like when he said "Kels, I wish we could go to Boston again and sleep in the same bed and hold hands". And when he is always starting a crazy fun imaginary game at home like superheroes vs. villains.
He always seems to be bursting with happiness and affection.
He says things now that are hilarious and random, like:
- "Mom, you're being up-nauseous" (obnoxious).
- "I pooped. I had one big poop, and lots of snake poops. I stinked it up really good".
- "Your car is remarkable".
Mom and Dad took some final pictures of him in his toddler bed, before moving up to a real bed for his birthday. Suddenly he looks so big.
The mornings are tough for him now, since he tries to stay up at night to see what our parents are doing. He is convinced they are up late watching Captain America cartoons and eating brownies without him. So, he fights sleep as long as he can. Which makes for some tired mornings.
He loves being a big kid. Because he gets to do things like go to the dentist.
And have lunch dates at his favorite restaurant.
And get special treats. Because M&Ms give him big muscles.
We love this loud, charming, imaginative boy!
