Well this kids personality just continues to bloom.  He is constantly keeping us on our toes, he is either crazy happy and fun or throwing a huge tantrum.  Luckily the fun times outweigh the tantrums.  He is becoming a little bit more of a picky eater, but still eats fairly well for the most part, it is just a little bit more work on our part.  He refuses to sit in a high chair or booster seat anymore at meal time.  He has fallen off the chair a few times, but not near as often as I thought he would.  He also insists on feeding himself all the time, no matter what the food is, which was fine when he was sitting in a high chair, but now most of his food ends up on the floor.   He loves to be outside and when he is cranky we try to get outside as quickly as possible and luckily he loves to help pick weeds.   He has a few new words this month like ouch, no (actually saying it not just shaking his head), he will occasionally say up and down.  He still loves to say please and will say that anytime I ask him to say something that he doesn't want to say.  Everything is still pink, hopefully soon we can throw another color in there.  He continues to get friendlier and more outgoing.  He loves to show people things and try to tell them things with his grunts and hand motions.  He will even occasionally let other people pick him up.  He has been kind of obsessed with necklaces ever since Brooklyn made him one.  He wore it every where for a good week.  He is slowly getting less attached to his binky, don't get me wrong he still loves it, but he can now go without it sometimes.  He now will leave it in the car when we go in somewhere like the gym, church or the park.  He loves to hide his binky which makes it difficult at bedtime when he is crying for it, luckily we have a stash of them for this very reason.  He loves to play basketball on his little hoop and where his basketball shoes (he has a pair of Jordan's).   He really can be a stinker sometimes, but he is the cutest stinker I have ever seen.  I love that goof ball so much and he truly does make this family whole.

The both insisted on wearing their Christmas jammies 

He found a worm in grandma's garden

He loves to put clothes on by himself and will put on anything that is left on the ground, including sisters undies

Brooklyn wanted to dress up, so of course McKay needed to dress up as well

Brooklyn wanted a picture of her dinosaur tower (she has been watching a lot of Land Before Time) that she buil,t so of course McKay needed a picture of his tower  as well and these are the faces he gave me:

playing grandpa's harmonica and he actually does a pretty good job
