you


you.

you "rawr" like a dinosaur

you shake your head "yes" or "no" when asked a question.

you prefer shaking your head "no".

you could live off a diet of mandarin oranges and olives.

you can make the sign for milk in sign language.

you crawl to the bottom of the stairs and call out for your sleeping dadda all day long.

you scream like a wild banshee when I try to cut your finger nails.

you walk.

you love to stare out windows.

you sing yourself to sleep sometimes.

you scream yourself to sleep sometimes.

you somehow turn every object into a car and make vroom sounds.

you say (some form of) cheese, chip, oranges , grapes, milk, juice, this, that, momma, dadda, doggie, horse, sock, shoe, book, vacuum and uh-oh.

you whisper Shhhh all day long.

you point out every nose you see while we read picture books together.

you wipe down surfaces with a napkin or wipe.

you ask to see the vacuum every day.

you talk to the vacuum every day.

you cuddle when you are sleepy.

you make my heart grow bigger every day.


you I love.

three


my three favorite places that I have been

one: Niagara on the Lake, Canada. probably the cutest town I have ever seen. It is like a storybook setting.

two: Venice,Italy. The gondola ride alone sold me.

three: Donegal, Ireland. Heaven with incredible accents.

Birthday Boy

Here at the Daigle house we have a strong desire to set up traditions to do with our children throughout the year. We started our first tradition today with the Daigle Rainbow Pancake breakfast. We plan on waking our children up every birthday morning with a colorful stack of pancakes.

Here they are on the griddle ( they did not turn out as bright as we hoped, so they looked a bit easter-y)







And a blue cupcake for dessert. He was way more into being messy this time around. He would actually hold the cupcake up to his nose and inhale the icing.




Happy Birthday my darling messy boy.
