Things that Scream ANDREW!!!!

- Throwing toys down the stairs

- Unraveling the toilet paper in the bathroom

- Blowing raspberries when he is upset and doesn't get his way

- Playing shy and making scrunchie smiley faces

- Blowing kisses and waving bye-bye

- Saying "Please" in sign for anything and everything

- Clapping whenever he hears it (even when it is on the TV!)

- Emptying all the VHS tapes out of their boxes

- Shreading anything (especially papers, tissues, and paper towels)

- Emptying out all the kitchen towels from the drawer

- Dumping out all the rubberbands

- Getting into his cups if the lazy susan is up for grabs

- Taking the cheerios I put on the table for him for breakfast and dumping them into my cereal bowl with milk and eating them

- Turning on and off lights

- Closing the garage door

- Dragging clothes across the floor like a pull toy

- Playing with his shoes all over the house

- Walking in our shoes all over the house

- Blowing bubbles in the bathtub (well, mostly drinking it)!

-Brushing his hair

-Dancing like a wild man to any tune!

-He loves all things Elmo, Mickey Mouse, Cars, and Incredibles

-He loves family hugs, giving kisses, sitting in time-out (yes he does his fair share), playing with his cars, and wrestling (especially with his Grandpa).

-He also loves to go on walks, can't get enough of all the sounds the world makes. He loves playing with cars and trucks (especially ones that make sounds).

-He absolutely loves dogs! He has been barking at dogs he sees and dogs he hears since he was like 6 months old. We always have to stop if he sees one or hears one. He loves playing with them too.

-He use to get scared from the vacuum just by seeing it but especially from the sounds it makes. He is over that fear now. He loves sticking his heard near where the shop vac blows out air. He gets a kick out of it, laughs like crazy from it!

-He gets scared from the sounds his daddy's air compressor makes and needs to be consoled after hearing it go off.

-He loves being chased and tickled. You could do that all day long and he would have a blast!

-He takes apart his sandwich at lunchtime, but then eats all of it in the end.

-He loves chips and cookies. Well, he loves food. If you are eating you better share with him or he gets all hot and bothered.

-When he is excited about something his whole body shakes, especially his head.

-He is my water baby, has loved it from the beginning. He would spend all day in the tub or a pool if I let him.

-He loves to read. He doesn't like anyone to read to him, but loves looking at books.

-He loves music and loves to sing and hear it. If I practice a song and have a book with the music in it, he has to read it along with me. He loves to play his instruments, especially the drum. He also claps and says "Yay" after every song in church.

-He loves technology. He loves playing with cell phones, most of his toys become phones at some point in the day. He loves playing (banging) on the computer. He loves watching himself on the video camera while I am trying to film him (of course this makes it a little hard when I am trying to capture him doing something and then he comes over to investigate and I end up not getting what I was trying to get on film!). He also likes having his picture taken but then wants to see it right after!

-He sleeps with a Build-a-Bear Elmo that Jeremy and I got while we were still dating, my little Mickey Mouse from childhood, a big puppy he got for Christmas, and (very recently) a stuffed turtle.

-The only movies that hold his attention are "Cars" and "The Incredibles". They are also what I turn to when nothing else works. They calm him down and make things right.

-He loves to watch me bake and cook. He always wants to see what I am making. If there is something in the mixer he wants to watch it work. If I am making something on the counter or the stove he wants to be right there too.

-If I am folding clothes he helps take them out of the basket (a lot of the time already folded, so I have to refold them). If they are his clothes he trys to put them on.

-He loves to be under the blankets with us like we are inside a tent. Sometimes he uses his blankets like they were capes too.

-Andrew is a lovable, huggable, squishy dimple faced little boy that we love and cherish! Hope you guys enjoyed learning about our precious little guy! God bless!
