My cute Mr. Porter Michael is such a silly kid. Promise the Buzz
Lightyear underwear on his head are clean.

Teddy of course has to do whatever Porter does, so he too is wearing underwear.

My little problem solver: since he can't reach the basketball rim he pushed the hoop over to the table, carefully put the ball on top so it wouldn't roll off, climbed on the chair to get to the table, and made a basket! He was so proud of himself! "
Wook at me!"



Porter got creative and colored on the wall with a blue crayon. I told him to go get something to clean it up with and he got a hot pad. Silly boy.

Groundhog Day! (2/2/11) My little son wanted to get into his banana faster than I was getting there so my little problem-solver just bit into it and pulled. It worked for him.

February 2
nd he spent another nap on the floor by his door. He fought it and pulled a flap book apart, then pushed it under, and fell asleep with his hand under the door. Little goober.

Porter loves to help Mommy clean and do chores. He helps me vacuum and everything!

Porter had his friend Nate over one Friday and they went to go watch the garbage man.

Porter's new thing: wrapping up in his towel after a bath and curling up into a ball to lay on the floor.

January 27
th Porter officially turned 29 months (aka: almost two and a half years old!). He weighs 28 lbs, wears 6-7 size shoe, 24 month size clothes, size 4 diaper, uses the potty on occasion, and is growing up so fast! He loves to sing ABC's, count 1-10, and
LOOOOVES saying and signing his colors.

Porter Time Out: he has to stand in a corner with his nose to the wall. He usually takes it all too well. While he is in time out he says over and over (with the cutest, most precious, innocent voice ever) "Okay Mama." He doesn't need time out very often and it's usually for hitting a friend or making a mess of something he knows he's not supposed to touch (such as the dog food/water).

Porter thinks the vacuum is so much fun; he had a Denise the Menace moment...

One Sunday I let Porter 'have at it' with the Sunday paper. He had fun ripping it all to pieces. Kept him busy.

Sweet little guy. Sunday January 30
th he ended up taking a very late nap on the chair in the living room.

Family Home Evening (
FHE) on January 31st Aaron gave a lesson on the 2,000 Stripling Warriors from the Book of Mormon. Aaron and Porter dressed up as "warriors" (basically their superhero look with hats on) and Aaron showed Porter the picture while telling him about those brave young men.

One of Porter's new favorite toys are these building blocks. One of Mommy's least favorite thing is picking them all up. One day he picked them up all by himself without even being asked! Love those moments!

Porter likes to be buried in pillows.

"Run spin" with Daddy! Porter calls it that because he gets a running start and then Daddy spins him around. Adorable! February 1st I was SO PROUD when Porter used the potty (#1 & #2) all by himself! He usually says "poo poo potty" and I take him to the bathroom, but this time he went to the bathroom all by himself and did his business! Afterward I asked if he wanted his "Elmo diaper" on or his big boy underwear. He opted for the underwear and wore them for the evening having one accident. Well, two actually. One of the floor (when we were getting his potty treat) and the other while wearing the undies. I love this little boy. He is such a smart kid and a problem-solver like his Daddy. And true to being a toddler has to get into some mischief now and again. =P

Porter is so cute! It is so fun to watch kids learn new things and figure out problems on their own.
yeah.....about that blue crayon thing, i think he was framed. look at the cute kid-i'm sure he wouldn't do that. ;)
p.s. it's spelled goober....not gubber. just sayin.' :)
melts your heart to hear that he says "ok mama" when he"s in time out. he is an awesome little dude.
Oh, my gosh! Just when you think he can't get any cuter he goes and gets cuter!!! (I know, cuter is not a real word). How do you actually discipline that kid without laughing?
