It's been a while, eh? You've been keeping us busy, busy, busy. It's crazy how much energy you have and how much joy you bring. :) You are still Daddy's little mini me. Grandma and Grandpa even got you some little Sperries to complete the twindom. You are so smart that it astounds us, and you're doing all kinds of new things.
I am thrilled that even though you look exactly like Daddy, you do have a lot in common with me too. Take tonight, for example. You were so excited to show us when you got home that you know how to jump. You kept running around shouting "Jump!" and launching yourself into the air. You may not have a career as a basketball player (we'll keep working on those ups), but you really do know how to have a good time and how to entertain yourself!
Daddy and I jumped along with you for a while, much to your delight. You weren't ready to give up this new and fantastic trick when we started to make dinner, so you carried on. As you gained confidence, courage, and air, you also got a little wobbly. On one particularly spectacular jump, your legs came out from under you, and you wiped out on your buns. I waited to see your reaction, hoping that you would shrug it off like you often do. What you did was even better! You just sat calmly and started playing, pretending that this had all been part of your master plan. When you noticed me looking, you just gave me a "there's nothing to see here look" and kept on keepin' on. Atta boy. Between that, sticking your tongue out for concentration, and talking incessantly to yourself, maybe you do have a little of me in you after all. :)

Keep being you, sweet boy.
Love you,
