New Loves of Will

Bubbles from Gymboree.
He has liked them since our music class in the spring, but brings them to me all the time now. He used to kind of run from them, but now he stands in the middle of a huge amount of bubbles without putting his arms over his head and he actually even tries to pop them! He tries to blow them too, but he hasn't figured out how to blow out yet.
"Pop"
Will has never liked really cold things in his mouth, especially popsicles or ice cream. Lately, though, he has really enjoyed our Motts Pops. He loves to suck out the icy juice and then hands it back to us so we can eat the flavorless leftover chuck of ice. Then we have to push up more so he can do it again until it is gone. However, Daddy gets the best part of the melted juice at the end. What Will doesn't know doesn't hurt, right, Jordan?
Being Chased
One of Will's new words is "Ga ga ga gaa ga ga ga ga" which translates to "Getcha Getcha Getcha." He loves having someone chase him, whether or not they even are. He places himself in front of someone, turns around to look at them and shrieks in laughter. It is as though he intices them to chase him! Hey, it works for us!
Swimming
Okay, it is not new, but the swim class is! Will LOVES water and especially the songs we sing towards the end of class.
Playdoh
Will used to hate it and would barely even touch it to throw it off his tray, but now he likes to stick stuff in it and rip it to shreds.
Swings
It used to be all about the slides, but now Will runs right for the swing and continues to want to swing every ten minutes or so! I wish he would run around a little more and expel some of the energy he now comes home with!
Ashley!
He seems to have his first little girlfriend. He likes to be around her more than any other kid in the Mom's group, and frequently tries to give her kisses. It is no coincidence that they both have runny noses and coughs right now! Can you blame him? She is adorable!

Bubbles are awesome - we use those as a bribe to get the boy into the tub sometimes. We haven't tried play-dough yet... or paint... bummer about the paint mess! Our Will drew all over a wall/window/curtain once with a highlighter, but it cleaned up pretty well.

I'm sad he'd rather be kissing Ashley then his auntie! -- looks like he's got a new lady in his life!

It was good to see you guys :) Miss you already!
