Dear Marcus,
You have always had a very calm and sweet disposition, but you definitely went through the whiney phase. I think every kid does when they can't keep up with the people around them. I couldn't blame you! Who wants to be left by themselves in a room when everyone else can go everywhere they want. :)
Well, since you started walking, you have not stopped smiling. You love walking! Your favorite thing to do is to pick something up (preferably something really heavy!) and carry it to me. You don't want to give it to me, but you just want to show me that you can carry it. You have this very cute "proud of myself" look that just makes me smile! And when I pick you up at the gym, you are usually just walking around smiling. You are just so happy to be able to keep up with the rest of us!
We went to Granny and Papa Bill's house for Labor Day and you did great! You had your moments where I was ready to go home (like during the entire OU game!) but you slept great, you played well and you just enjoyed walking around in the great outdoors! My favorite was when Jordan caught a fish and Pappa put it down right in front of you. You weren't quite sure about that, but you enjoyed poking at it!
Yesterday, we went to the Cleveland County fair. It was such a blast! Jordan rode rides and you watched. I took you on the carousel and you really enjoyed it. You didn't smile the whole time, but you had a wide-eyed look as you soaked it all in.
I'm so thankful for you! I'm blessed to be your Mom.
I love you!
