Some Julian favorites!

I was thinking today that there are things Julian says and does that I don't want to forget. He is growing and changing so fast that it is easy to move onto what is new. So in respect for preserving time, here is a little Julian-time-in-a-bottle action.

Julian Words

• In the land of Jayhawks--they are all around. Not only does Julian know the fight song (which most adults around here can't do), but he says "Rock Chalk Hayhawk" There are "hayhawks" everywhere you know.

• He is big into super hero's these days. He spends a lot of time with cousin Jack (6) and is learning the ends and outs of superheros. He happily sports Spider man undies, drinks out of Spider man cup, and munches over a Spider man placemat. He has no trouble saying spider man and is constantly spewing webs on us, what he does get a little mixed up is The Incredible Hulk, at our house it is "Incredible the Hawk."

• Something he recently learned to say correctly, but for preservation sake--until a couple weeks ago, a Helicopter was a Hopter-copter.

• I call Hopper (our cat) Hop-Pop, so does Julian.

• I call Sasha (our puppy) Sashi-boo, so does Julian.

• Person- "what is your name?" Julian's response-"Julian Xavier Blakley, and I can poop in the potty"
  

Favorite Color

• Green

Favorite Books

• The foot Book
• The Lorax (in which, when the story proclaims that "out in the field, they heard a tree fall, the very last truffula tree of them all!" Julian says "Oh man!" every single night--for months now).
  

Nighttime songs

• I'm a Jayhawk
• ABC's
• Rock-a-bye-baby (with various different pets or friends/family in the cradle that falls--sometimes with several encores just to include everyone)
• and always to end the night: Hush Little Baby

Things he is interested in

• Being a big brother...he is very excited
• Sasha, the puppy--they are the best of friends and she wimpers with glee when he comes home after a few days with his Mom
• Taking long baths (full of talking and imagining and great play)
• telling stories "once upon a time..." and so he goes
• Rolling his eyes and making silly faces
• Eating (anything, mostly strawberries, cereal, toast with Jelly--just to name a few favorites)
• Bossing the animals around
• Helping Daddy with ANYTHING
• Watching Cartoons in our bed in the mornings
• Superhero's
• Chalk
• Letters--he wants to know what everything says
• Which direction we're driving (he almost knows his left from his right and nine out of ten times gets his shoes on the correct feet)
• Wearing safety Glasses!
  

Julian Xavier these days!
