Things to Remember

McKay 'helping' me fix the Christmas lights.

McKay has started to really enjoy crafts. The top pictures are of a card he made to send to Grandpa & Grandma Moser on their mission. He made the snowman and nativity at preschool and the circles are his first encounter with markers, which he loved. In the middle picture, his nativity, baby Jesus, Joseph & Mary are making a train. Anything lined up is a train. Choo-choo!

He got a little distracted while putting the silverware away. Both are medicine dispensers.

He just couldn't make two trips to put away our socks. :)

McKay was cold and wanted me to wrap him in a blanket. I was fixing dinner so I wrapped him up and tucked it in so it would stay. He thought that was pretty neat and was very careful to not let it unwrap... for a while anyway!

When we were in Monterey for Thanksgiving, Jordan didn't realize how low the ceiling was and went to put McKay on his shoulders and hit his head on the ceiling. Now every time Jordan lifts him up, McKay points to the ceiling and says 'no head'! He didn't cry but he also hasn't forgotten!

We have an old pie pan from Frontier Pies we use for tater tots and fish sticks. One night when we were washing dishes, Jordan was washing and McKay and I were rinsing. I rejected the pie pan due to a spot I found on the pan. Now EVERY TIME we wash the pie pan McKay rejects the pan because of a spot (stain) on the old pan. We try to sneak it past him but it rarely works. This night we told HIM to clean it and gave him a scraper. He worked on it the rest of the time we were washing and was upset when we sneaked (or thought we did) it past him to finish up. This kid remembers everything!

McKay notices Christmas Trees (any decorated tree) wherever we go. He LOVES to put things under the tree.

We got the Christmas Classics this year so I told McKay that if he ate all his food for dinner, we could watch a surprise show. He was excited to watch a 'boo ow' (BOO! Show). After a couple of evenings it turned into 'ise ow' (surprise show) even after Jordan and I started calling it a Christmas show.

McKay likes to wear my slippers. We were playing and he kept saying 'my shoe' and I'd return with 'no MY shoe'. To seal the deal, he went and put my slippers in his drawer where we put his shoes. I remembered this when I went to find my slippers after he was in bed.

McKay's new favorite cold cereal is Lucky Charms. His previous favorite was Rice Crispy's. He also really likes Cinnamon Life. We have more cold cereal than usual around since I am pregnant!

Tonight we had a family group hug, then kisses, then "I Love You" whispered secrets, then nosey kisses. It is pretty tricky to get 3 noses together to rub!

We pulled up to Trader Joes and McKay said 'no yogurt, home'. Yes, we DO still have some of his yogurt at home but HOW did he know we were at the store where we buy his yogurt??
