Tate


I sure do love my Tater Mater. He is taking on more of an individual personality. Mostly before he would just do what Hunter did...and although he still does much of that...he is really coming into his own. And I love it! He's so cute and easy going. He's become a GREAT helper for me. This morning he came and grabbed Callie's diaper out of my hand even as I was wrapping it up and took it right to the trash. He's been bringing her toys and kneeling in front of her and talking to her.



He really loves books. At both gma and gpa's house he loves to grab a pile of books and have them read to him. At home he likes to sit next to me and look at books while I read them to the kids. One of my most favorite things is to come upon him with a pile of books just looking at them quietly. He likes animal books the best.


His vocabulary has REALLY taken off lately. He is putting three or four word sentences together and it is so fun to hear him say things unexpectedly. Some of my favorite things to hear:
-Thank you momma!
-Mommy turn.
-That way!
-You're welcome.

I LOVE the way he says "Hunter", "Yes", "House", and "Mouse".


He likes lining things up right now. He'll take all the pillows and blankets and line them up all over the room(this annoys me sometimes, but it is still cute) He lines up all the animals at ECFE. I remember Hunter going through this phase.

He's definitely more quiet than Hunter. I believe in the birth order theory of personalities. Hunter is very much like me, and Tate is very much like how my sister was. I think Tate will be a very good big brother for Callie.


I LOVE LOVE LOVE his silly smile. It can brighten my day faster than anything! I love taking pictures of him b/c of his smile.

I sure do love my Taters and can't wait to learn even more about his personality.
