Present time
More cake, please.
Redding has a sweet tooth...

Doc for his GeoTrax. He also received Mater from Pop and Mimi Anderson.

Now he and Redding can race.

Redding obviously gets Lightning McQueen

because his batteries are low, making him very slow!

Our best attempt at a family picture!

What he is doing: running (and running and running), running into things, talking (and talking and talking), being silly, loving his brother, eating, playing basketball (and golf and soccer), telling stories and be told stories, counting to 39, he knows all shapes (including hexagons, octagons, etc.) and colors, beginning to write, knows all his letter and is recognizing words, refers to anything that happened in the past as "last day" (remember last day when we went to the museum), Giving mommy hugs and kisses, fighting (and loving) Daddy, helping (especially Redding), demanding that Redding call him "sir", deciding whether he wants to be a righty or a lefty, growing up WAY too fast...

Ahh, love that boy.
