Nick is 3 1/2

Nick is now 3 1/2 years old. He is happy and bright and fun until he decides to be angry, and then he's a little terror. Here are some things about him:

Goes to preschool. Can write his own name. Can also write Mom. Loves riding his bike with training wheels. Likes playing with balls. Is truly starting to experience the world around him. Constantly comments on the colors of traffic lights while we are driving. Not a very picky eater. Loves sweets. Loves Spiderman. Still a good sleeper, but does get distracted by Lila often times at night since they share a room. Frequently will describe something that just happened and then ask "right?" Is loud. If he can't get your attention, he just keeps asking the same thing louder and louder. Loves taking baths. When he wants to do something, he says that he will do it and then asks "OK"? Likes football because his big sister does, and he thinks she's cool. Wears size 4T clothes. Likes playing with his friends. Still pretty good at playing by himself, but is much more wary about being alone. Loves watching shows. If we won't let him have shows, he likes to look through the pictures on my phone, or send emoji's to daddy through text. If I won't grant them access to my phone, he has figured out how to turn on the camera by himself and take pictures. He loves music and dancing. His favorite song is "can't stop the feeling" by Justin Timberlake. He calls it the "sunshine in my pocket song." He also likes "Thunder" by Imagine Dragons. He also likes "hickory Dickory dock" that I play for him on the piano, and "brush your teeth" by Raffi. He tries to get Alexa to play them all, but has difficulty getting his point across. She ends up playing all kinds of strange songs.  Loves being tickled. Pronounces his short A's with both a long a sound and a short a sound "day-add" for dad and "say-add" for sad.

Here are a few recent pictures of Nick as well as a few of his own pictures that he has taken.

Here are some of his:

Once he got upset that Jane was not in the picture he had tried to take of her. After I explained to him that you had to see her in the phone when you push the button, he got much better at aiming the camera. This one is his own handiwork.
