My Tino

This is my little Tino. He is so sweet.

Lately he has been giving me lots of hugs and kisses and telling me, "Love you mom." He loves to be held, he loves to snuggle, he loves. I love it! When we play together, he laughs and laughs and laughs, then he gets a little hostile when I need to do something for Corbs or Nix. When I put him in time out he will stay there till he has ahold of himself, then he comes out and says in a sweet voice, "Stop crying mom." When he poops his pants he turns on the sweet voice again and says, "poop pants mom." His pants mostly never match cuz he has a lot of accidents. I'm trying to potty train, he is mostly pee trained, and I put him in diapers sometimes, but he will only poop in the diaper, he still uses the potty to pee, so we use 1 or 2 diapers a day, not too bad! Oh, something else he says that makes me smile. I say, "Come here." and he says, "Coming. Coming." He says, "O.K. mom" a lot too, and he says it with the tone of and respectful but irritated teenager. He talks a lot, he isn't crying as much lately, even though he cries a lot still! He has learned to do a lot of things himself, like get the Hershey Syrup out of the fridge, get the milk out of the fridge, get a spoon out of the drawer and get a cup out of the cupboard. Hmmmmm. He also gets his books down from the shelf in the closet. Today the shelf was empty and his bedroom floor was covered in books. I went up there and he showed me a book he found. He was so excited about it that I didn't say a word about the mess. He went back to the mess on the floor and was trying to uncover a bunch of cars he buried.

I. Love. This. Boy!
